Session Title: Build a RESTful Client-Server Rich Internet Application with JavaFX™Technology and Jersey (JSR 310)
Session Abstract: Rich Internet applications -- RIAs -- require a strong service access and data access layer on the back end, just like traditional or Web-based applications. It is therefore essential to combine desktop technologies and server technologies in order to provide fast, efficient, and secure access to your data.

This "Bring Your Own Laptop" version of LAB-5557 shows how to combine desktop technologies, such as JavaFX™technologies, and back-end technologies, such as Web services and REST-based services, to build state-of-the-art desktop applications.

The lab goes through a very simple example of REST data retrieval and a JavaFX software-based graphical representation of these data. It uses the following technologies:

• RESTful Web service and JSR 310 (Jersey) API on the server side
• JavaFX technology on the client side

The JavaFX application will asynchronously poll RESTful Web services to collect data that will be used to dynamically update the client rich UI.
