New impressive Line of Business applications done with Silverlight

  • Artikel

Last August I posted a blog with some interesting demos of Silverlight for LOB: https://blogs.msdn.com/swiss_dpe_team/archive/2008/08/26/cool-ria-silverlight-demo-applications.aspx.
Now, 6 months after, a few very impressive LOB style applications are available to try out.

Here are a couple that have impressed me:

- CAS PIA CRM application. This one is the most impressive LOB that I have seen so far:

- Best Free Charts. It is a web-based stock charting and analysis. You get true software in your browser, streaming real-time data, and it's all completely free:

- Another stock chart app that looks really professional:

These applications are very good example why I belive Silverlight has such a huge potential for LOB solution, especially compared to ASP.NET/Ajax based one.

Have fun

    CAS PIA CRM looks good, I've been waiting for good examples of LOB app. One thing that always disappoints me though is SL performance. Currently I'm using a Intel P4 3.0 GHz with 2 GB of RAM, a somewhat standardized choice of PC of my current customer (international insurance company). If I idle the CAS PIA app in the Contact view, my CPU load is pending between 10-13% doing NOTHING, just rendering a static SL screen! If I start moving the mouse over the datagrid rows containing the contacts, CPU usage peaks at nearly 40%. Just for a MouseOver effect! If 3D HW support in SL 3.0 will fix this, it better be in the system req. list ;)
