The current web scenario demands web application development characterized by high interactivity. This exact demand is catered to by the combination of Asynchronous JavaScript with XML known as AJAX. Google Maps and A9 are astute examples of the prowess and popularity of AJAX and provide end users with a never seen before rich interactivity experience.

Individually, Asynchronous JavaScript and XML have existed from some time but only when they were combined have they really unleashed their real potential in website application development. Web application development through AJAX has many prominent features. The browser user interface is not blocked even when a response is awaited from the web server due to the asynchronous requests made to the web server. A high dependence on browser based logic written in JavaScript is a characteristic of AJAX style applications and is due to the recent enhancements and standardization of the DOM model which enlists support for client side user interface updates of a dynamic nature. The exchange of unrequited data between the browser and web server is facilitated by the communication with web server without page reload using the XML HTTP object native to the XML language. The web application development and the rich internet application development segments have been bolstered with the advent of AJAX based web application development and its benefits over prevalent web application development techniques such as doing away with the necessity of generation of an HTTP request to the web server in every case of a user interaction. The advantages of AJAX based web application development that can be enumerated are richer user web experience, avoidance of re-rendering UI widgets each time and improved overall system latency due to reduction in role of web server providing logic.
