What is AltioLive?
AltioLive is a platform for building and deploying rich internet, thin client applications that offer real-time bi-directional interactivity with enterprise data.
AltioLive is a best fit for the presentation of, and interaction with, data-intensive information where immediacy is critical. Based on patented technology and industry standards such as Java and XML, AltioLive uses a small yet highly efficient client to communicate with the server and render XML screen layouts as Swing windows within the web browser. As a result, the user can enjoy features such as secure live data delivery, drag and drop, filtering and sorting – all in the browser.

The AltioLive platform integrates easily with existing application environments. It is both easy to connect to sources of information and simple to deploy over a network via a URL. The AltioLive client is designed to run in as many different browsers on as many different operating systems as required, meaning your applications can be deployed as widely as possible.
The architecture is straightforward and uses the power of the J2EE platform. It has been designed to allow rich internet applications to be created with server-controlled data access, rather than data access taking place on the client.
The architecture is also extensible, allowing developers to write Swing-based custom controls for the user interface as well as server-side components that can be plugged into the Altio Presentation Server.
