ILOG Elixir for Adobe AIR and Flex makes it easy for developers to create rich Internet applications (RIAs) that provide advanced graphical data-displays. ILOG Elixir helps Flex developers turn raw data into clear, actionable information through a highly graphical and interactive user experience.

ILOG Elixir for Adobe Flex allows Flex developers to:

  • Quickly deliver graphical and interactive RIAs as dashboards with charts and maps, scheduling and planning displays or organization charts.
  • Create custom displays through ILOG Elixir class derivation or numerous extendible APIs.
  • Reuse all existing Adobe Flex and AIR capabilities as server push, off-line modes and data connections.
