Lansing, MI. March 25, 2009 - IDV Solutions today announced that Microsoft will host a webcast on “Rapidly Building Enterprise Mashups for Greater Situational Awareness” which will take place on Wednesday April 22, 2009 from 2:00 PM – 3:00 PM EST.

In this webcast Scott Caulk, Product Manager for IDV Solutions, will present on how IDV Solutions’ Visual Fusion suite of products leverages Microsoft’s SharePoint to create a platform for rapidly developing enterprise mashups and highly visual composite applications to promote greater situational awareness. The Visual Fusion platform reduces the time and risk associated with developing compelling, mission critical applications that pull together data from disparate sources into common operational pictures for greater situational awareness.

Virtual Earth becomes the canvas to display the information, providing a commanding overview and at-a-glance understanding. The resultant app is a rich internet application with an intuitive and inviting interface (Flash or Silverlight) suitable for everyone in the organization. App users can interact with the dynamic content, contribute to it via easily accessible tools, and collaborate around it with SharePoint blogs, wikis, discussion lists, etc. Development for these apps is measured in hours, not weeks or months, and a sample app will be built in just a few minutes during the webcast.

Organizations benefit greatly from the agility and flexibility that the Visual Fusion platform affords. Simple apps can be built with GUIs, but developers are also empowered to build highly customized applications via an SDK (C# API), REST & JS APIs, and configuration files. Once a completed app is in the hands of the users, the benefits continue as workflows are completed more quickly, revenue opportunities materialize, and greater insight is developed around the issue at hand. Join us to learn about this decision support technology and how it can bring tremendous value to your organization.
