JSON

Did you know that from OpenInsight version 9.0.1 you can utilise JSON from within your OpenInsight applications. During the recent RUG in London, Mike showed how easy and fast JSON is within OpenInsight using a round-trip RSS feed example. JSON is becoming more and more popular as a replacement for XML as it is smaller, faster and easier to use. This is yet another check box that you can tick on your sales proposals when asked.

“JSON (pronounced /ˈdʒeɪsɒn/, i.e., "Jason"), short for JavaScript Object Notation, is a lightweight computer data interchange format. It is a text-based, human-readable format for representing simple data structures and associative arrays (called objects).” (Source – Wikipedia - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JSON).
