Microsoft ASP.NET Atlas (AJAX) Framework Preview

Atlas ASP.NETAtlas is Microsoft's framework for AJAX-style web application development. The recently launched Atlas site provides developers with software, documentation, quick starts, and hands-on exercises.

ASP.NET Atlas is a package of Web development technologies that integrates an extensive set of client script libraries with the rich, server-based development platform of ASP.NET 2.0.

Atlas enables you to develop Web applications that can update data on a Web page by making direct calls to a Web server — without needing to round trip the page.

This is just a hype that microspoft is creating. AJAX is not a big thing rather its just a 5 lines of javascript code with which you can get the AJAX effect in the web development. For this Microsoft is creating hype like its a Jumbo Jet, Infact it is a cycle...

Atlas and Ajax-based APIs are really hard to maintain, and its client side architecture breaks server-side API.
zumiPage is a better solution.

This new web development technology from Microsoft integrates cross-browser client script libraries with the ASP.NET 2.0 server-based development framework. In addition, Atlas offers you the same type of development platform for client-based web pages that ASP.NET offers for server-based pages.

Because Atlas is an extension of ASP.NET, it is fully integrated with server-based services. Atlas makes it possible to easily take advantage of AJAX techniques on the web and enables you to create ASP.NET pages with a rich, responsive UI and server communication. However, Atlas isn't just for ASP.NET. You can take advantage of the rich client framework to easily build client-centric web applications that integrate with any backend data provider and run on most modern browsers.
