Web 2.0 – AJAX Rich Clients
Secondo le indicazioni revisionali di Gartner, nel 2008 la maggioranza delle imprese adotterà soluzioni provenienti dall'ambiente Web 2.0, ma la mancata integrazione degli aspetti di community si tradurrà in un effetto minimo sul business. Gli elementi chiave del Web 2.0 possono essere divisi in tre macro-categorie: Technology, Community e Business.

Rich Client (Ajax, Offline Ajax, Flex e Microsoft), Persistent Web (Caching, streaming, managed client, "Web on client")
