The IBM Mashup Center is an end-to-end enterprise mashup platform that enables the rapid creation, sharing, and discovery of reusable application building blocks (widgets, feeds, mashups) that can be easily assembled into new applications or leveraged within existing applications.
The IBM Mashup Center[1] is designed to help users at all skill levels create simple web applications from existing information sources by dragging and dropping widgets onto the page, and then wiring them together on-the-glass.
Users can extend their mashup environment by incorporating custom developed widgets provided by IT, widgets available on the external IBM Mashup Catalog,[3] or widgets from across the Web, including any of the thousands of Google Gadgets.
Mashups can also be published to the catalog, where other users can easily reuse them.
[4] contains a set of new capabilities for the delivery of mashup applications and widgets,[5] including a new browser-based tool for simple widget creation, new and enhanced visualization widgets, and a new feature called "spaces" that allows users to collaboratively build and share multi-page enterprise mashups.
