     Title: Faster Flexible Development with IBM sMash

IBM's WebSphere sMash, a development and execution platform for quickly building agile web-based applications.

Less critical situational apps warrant simpler, less costly solutions that facilitate the aggregation of disparate services into a single app through dynamic scripting languages that require less costly development skills.

• Supports some of today's hottest dynamic scripting languages – PHP and Groovy – and provides an agile web application development environment.

• Allows you to unleash and reuse enterprise content, including SOA services, as RESTful services.

• Is based on the highly-acclaimed public incubator and developer community, Project Zero. Visit www.projectzero.org to learn more.

• The IBM Reliable Transport Extension for WebSphere sMash v1.1 provides the capability for apps to interact using an asynchronous, reliable queue based transport.

• WebSphere sMash Developers Edition v1.1 is available for free download and limited deployment. It contains browser-based tooling and an Eclipse plug-in.

• WebSphere sMash licenses are purchased when deploying it into production.
