Microsoft on Monday is unveiling its official Atlas technology branding for AJAX programming on ASP.Net, and will make the software available sooner than planned.
The company hopes to ship its Atlas technologies around the end of 2006, as opposed to next year.
Previously, Microsoft used the code name ASP.Net "Atlas" to refer to multiple components of technologies designed to assist Web developers with AJAX-style development, a Microsoft representative said in an e-mail. Now, the server-side Atlas functionality, which integrates with ASP.Net, is called ASP.Net 2.0 AJAX Extensions.
