Introduction
Rich Web Applications (RWA) are browser based Rich Internet Applications (RIA). They exploit new Application Programming Interfaces (API) in browsers that allow users to interact with a page on the Web as they would a desktop application.

The conjunction of RWA, Web 2.0 for business (or Enterprise Web 2.0), and evolutionary changes in IT infrastructure like Service Oriented Architecture (SOA), are creating new opportunities for business. Butler Group believes building RIAs will become the default mode of application development in the future.
