Sorry for excavating this old post, but I don't understand it.
In the context of Ajaxifying an nonajax based web application were the following for consequences off the following aspects asked:
- Security
- Page navigability
- Browser compatibility
- Scalability
I only understand that security is a big topic while such a migration. For the browser compatibility there was the hint made to JQuery, and yes I agree that with using such a framework it should not be a problem. But when I would see such as question in the exam, without any hints to additional JavaScript frameworks, how can I say that browser compatibility is not a big issue?
The other two points page navigability and Scalability weren't answered, or at least I didn't have seen them. My understanding of page navigability is that this area describes how my web pages are linked together and how I can navigate from one page to another. Due to the possibility with Ajax to load smaller parts of information to a page, I would say that it make also sense to reevalute this point.
From a scalability point of view it is clear for me that much more (smaller) requests will be send to the server than earlier the fewer (bigger) requests. Depending on the browser based events that trigger an Ajax-request I would also see the scalability as an important point.
It would be great if someone could share his thoughts.
