Mashup Technology !!
Mashup technology is a commonly used term to define the environment wherein a portal or an application is built using data, presentation or functionality from more than one source. Its like a group of guys knowing each other very well and they all have something worthwhile where in a smarter guy comes in and say hey dude look I liked your this thingi and I would like to use this thus he manages to get all different stuffs from his pals and fulfill his own need.
Now as in any kind of relationship Mashup do have its own pros and corns but then no relation ship can flourish without symbiotic harmony and so is true with Mashup. The main characteristics of the mashup are combination, visualization and aggregation. Mashup is important to make more useful already existing data, moreover for personal and professional use.
As from the basic concept it is apparent that Mashup cant exist without being in network thus the bone marrow of such a technology is network and they all are mostly online applications.mashups are generally client applications or hosted online. Major mashup vendors have added support for hosted deployment based on Cloud computing solutions; that are Internet-based computing, whereby shared resources, software, and information are provided to computers and other devices on demand without compromising on security offcourse.
Mashups have spurred the evolution of social software and Web 2.0. Mashups composition tools are so simple to use. Almost no programming skills are required, its like wiring of GUI widgets, services and components together by dragging wires between them.
