During TheServerSide Java Symposium panelist offered predictions and expectations for the future of development on the Java platform, and since "Java" couldn't provide a good answer for the web hopes are now on Javascript and AJAX ?

Cedric Beust, an engineer at Google, said: "I think all the pieces are there on the server side. But I think we'll get a whole new ecosystem around AJAX [Asynchronous JavaScript and XML]. It's like a bad cold. More and more people are coming to this thing and we have a whole new excitement for Web sites we never had before, with things like mashups."

Beust, who was invited onstage by Geir Magnusson, a member of the Apache Software Foundation and responsible for architecture for Intel's Middleware Products Division, as part of Magnusson's keynote, described AJAX as "SOA [service-oriented architecture] for the client. We're trying to pick up several services and put them on the client."
