What are Mashups?


a mashup is a web application that combines data from more than one source into a single integrated tool

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_application






Mashups and SharePoint•Data Form Web Part

–Formats data from any data source for display in SharePoint

–Connect to lists on other SharePoint Sites, RSS Feeds, Web Services or even your own Database Servers

•Business Connectivity Services–Allows for single sign-on access to data sources–More configuration required, but with that comes added flexibility

•Excel, Access and Reporting Services


Mashup Recipe

1. Start with a web service–Twitter, Facebook, Microsoft, Google, Yahoo, Amazon, Ebay all provide Web Service APIs

SharePoint App Model


APPS FOR SHAREPOINT

Are stand-alone applications that provide specific information or functionality to a SharePoint site.


APPS FOR SHAREPOINT

Apps for SharePoint are easy for users to install, use, manage, upgrade, and remove.


APPS FOR SHAREPOINT

•Apps can be SharePoint-hosted (reside and execute in SharePoint) or cloud-hosted (Windows Azure or other systems), or both.


Why the App Model?•Anyone can use it•Does not require Full Trust Server Deployment

•Rapid Prototyping•TRADEOFF – Server API or Client?


Offline Mapping

• Google Earth Enterprise– 2D and 3D mapping inside the firewall

– Good solution for limited connectivity or confidential information

• Bing Maps Server – http://www.vexcel.com
