Technical Happenings

Sky Travel Website

Back at the start of the year my team  launched the  Sky Travel site .  Since then it has changed  a lot and has a number of roll-outs planned to the end of the year.  Its got a great design and  some excellent  JavaScript work using JQuery.  Well worth a look if your planning a trip or holiday.

It continues to be  been built using open source Java technology (Tomcat, Mysql, Apache) and uses the Spring and Hibernate frameworks. Bu has moved hosting away from Easynet and into internal Sky hosting.

Site Launch Mazda BT-50

My team have just launched a site to show off the new Mazda BT-50 . Its written in .Net 3.5 feeding in XML content from an EPiServer CMS into a Flash front end and integrated into a Sieble Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system. Its rolling out over a number of European countries.

Mazda select EPiServer as a CMS platform

After creating two major sites for the Mazda 6 and Mazda 2, Mazda made the commitment to purchase the EPiServer Enterprise license. This will now be used for most of the sites we create and  in-line with this EPiServer  circulated a press release, (which had a comment form me in it) so i made a simple yahoo pipe to see how many sites took it up, so far we at 12.
