Does Google wave have an impact on Ria/Silverlight?

Some people think that the recently released Google wave platform for HTML 5 will have a significant impact on Ria, including Silverlight, others think that wave is actually a competitor of Microsoft SharePoint and exchange, rather than Ria. The HTML 5 specification contains some features that have long-term requirements. These features may seize the territory of RIA, especially for flash, Silverlight, and Java FX. In fact, creating the RIA platform is because html provides too few desktop-like experiences. This will change immediately. HTML 5 has not been standardized yet, but Firefox, chrome, Safari, and opera have introduced its elements. Microsoft also promised they would support HTML 5.

Some new features introduced in HTML 5 and web API proposals from W3C and whatwg include canvas, video, geolocation, and Web workers. There are already examples online. You can use the appropriate browser version to test the example. It is difficult to predict the progress made by HTML 5, its adoption rate, and whether major browser companies have reached the necessary consensus on it. Although its standardization will take several years. But in any case, things are changing, and Google is also using a wave widely used in HTML 5 to push it. Google's vice president of engineering, Vic gundotra, said at the Google I/O conference that the company had a big bet on HTML 5.

Gartner analyst Nick gall evaluated the potential impact of wave on Ria:

The wave client is an important proof of the concept of HTML 5 (or a pilot project ). If the wave client becomes a killer application, wave will have a significant (negative) impact on other Ria architectures.

Zoho's CEO, Sridhar vembu, added his title Microsoft Silverlight vs Google wave: Why HTML 5/wave has been placed in the opposition of RIA/Silverlight in a causal blog. Sridhar praised Silverlight as a great technology. At the same time, he believed that the negative impact of wave on Silverlight was caused by Microsoft's evil business: "Microsoft has many evil businesses in the industry, I cannot imagine that companies like us trust them in many things." All of this comes down to openness:

This makes us go back to Google: Now Google is pushing web standards forward. This is why zoho is definitely working with Google, even though they are our main competitors. We believe that there are many opportunities for everyone in the open web. Will Google abuse its position? Well, I believe Google understands the law of cause and effect!

PM Tim Heuer of Silverlight refuted Sridhar's statement:

SridharArticleYou must change the title. The title is easy to misunderstand, and Sridhar does not prove the title. He only explained the arguments about the prototype of wave and Silverlight ....... Sridhar tried to find out the similarities between the wave and Silverlight, but I don't think he did. He just threw out more fud about Microsoft ("fear, confusion, and doubt ").

He also defended Microsoft's openness:

I also found that Google was praised as the popular term "open. Let's take a look at the Google wave Federation protocol. They have created something and published it in a standard form (and set a. org domain name for it). This is what the protocol is open. If this is an open definition, why is Microsoft attacked by XAML? Have we published such a specification? C # What about it? It's an ECMA standard. I think this is a bit of double standard. I'm not saying that organizations like Google and Microsoft should stop doing this ...... In fact, the opposite is true. However, the Protocol was designed to address the feature requirements that existing standards are no longer available. Considering that other organizations have been hurt in the past, the Protocol is now greatly appreciated, which seems strange. Difficult to understand.

Tim does not think that wave is the real competitor of Silverlight/Ria:

Will wave threaten the RIA platform? I don't know. Is it actually an RIA platform? How does wave publish content similar to flash, Silverlight, or javafx? I think there is no basis for all current messages about this. Flash, Silverlight, and javafx have their own purposes. Is HTML5 really something people are talking about here? Next, let's analyze it briefly. As far as I know, HTML5 is still a working draft. This means to me as a developer and user that once it passes into a standard, the browser will have to decide to support it (I know some already support it )...... What's more --People must use these new browsers. The slow development of standards has led me to believe that the RIA platform will become popular for some time, because the RIA platform provides commercial providers with a certain degree of flexibility in the RIA framework.

In the comments posted by Tim, Sean proposed another wave competitor: "wave is more competitive with exchange + IM + OneNote w/SharePoint integration + outlook ."

Note: Lars Rasmussen is one of the Rasmussen brothers who proposed Google Maps and wave. He confirmed that Google promised to launchSource code:

We want to open sourceCodeThe main reason is that the protocol is used. Building a wave system is not easy-the first system takes us two and a half years-so we think that if you can get our code, view it, and start with this, protocol adoption will be much faster.

The Google wave architecture explains why wave is more than just a tool.

PS: I need to clarify that there is no direct comparison between wave and Silverlight. The impact of wave on Silverlight is indirect. HTML will seize the territory of RIA with HTML 5, shares with flash and Silverlight in the market. Google's full support for HTML 5 is helpful. There will certainly be companies that will cooperate with Google on wave, which will support HTML 5 and companies that are interested in using HTML. This is how the wave affects Ria, Silverlight, and Flash. I am not saying that HTML 5 will kill Flash or Silverlight. This is definitely not the case. This will have some impact. Ask readers to vote to express their views on the extent of impact. Thank you!
