If you’ve evaluated RESTx, our brand new platform for building RESTful web services, you’ve certainly noticed its - hybrid nature. Indeed, besides its vocation of being the simplest way to create RESTful web services, RESTx has been designed with the idea of letting programmers use their favorite JVM language when creating resource components.

So far, we naturally had Python, with which the RESTx core has been written, and Java, the default language of the JVM. We’re happy to announce that, since version 0.9.4it is now possible to write RESTx components with JavaScript!

By adding support for JavaScript in RESTx, our goal was to open the door of and application integration to web developers. To be sure, the need for integrating systems and applications is not the preserve of enterprise developers anymore, especially with the advent of SaaS and cloud computing. With RESTx, web developers can now accomplish such a complex task within the comfort of their favorite language.

Version of RESTx – the fastest way to create RESTful web services – has just been released. The main features introduced by this version are the ability to write components in server-side JavaScript, the addition of a JavaScript client library and much improved handling of content types for input and output. You can download it now.

I am very excited to announce that MuleSoft has launched a new open source integration product called iBeans (short for Integration Beans). provide a way to dramatically simplify common integration tasks for Web application developers.

Why did we create iBeans?
