Business Mashups: Build and Deploy Applications without the Need for Professional Developers

Businesses of all sizes have growing lists of application requests that represent billions of dollars in lost productivity, lower customer satisfaction, and missed opportunities. Many of these applications are small or low-complexity, making it difficult to justify spending IT resources. The solution? Allow subject-matter experts in the business to implement their own process-centric applications.

Business mashups make this possible by enabling subject-matter experts to "mash-up" services and functionality from existing applications in a unique mix that meets their business needs—without having to develop applications from scratch. To enable these experts—who do not have traditional development skills—organizations must provide a secure and scalable infrastructure of services, intuitive tools, and a peer-to-peer marketplace for buying, selling, and rating these applications.

Find out how your company can create unique applications to meet your specific business needs.
