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.

Sky Travel Site Launched

I am happy to announce that my team have just launched the new Sky Travel site . It is a complete re-development form the ground up and integrates with multiple providers to provide a breath of product offerings.  It has been built using open source Java technology (Tomcat, Mysql, Apache) and uses the Spring and Hibernate frameworks.  The site is fully content managed and uses the open source Incendiary Blue CMS.

Incendiary Blue Open Source Java CMS

I have recently released content management system that i co-wrote. It’s a lightweight content management system that uses standard data and data structure formats to represent content structure and content. It is Java for platform independence, and utilizes tags or Java objects to incorporate content into HTML pages. It has some great feature for relational content and a rich security system. It’s been used on sites for Daimler Chrysler, Disney, St Gobain and more recently Essent and is soon to be deployed on Sky Travel.

The sourceforge project can be found at Incendiary Blue on Sourceforge infromation will grow and a site created in the coming months.
