due to the large explosion in smartphones and tablets etc.., we are considering developing a universal SOA API that can be implemented on any client device for our crm type application. The goal is to be client agnostic...it can be silverlight, wpf, asp.net/ajax, html5/ajax, iOS, android, blah blah blah... in these competitive times, we need to be super agile when the next cool device/trend comes along, allowing us to quickly develop a new client/solution that platform using our existing SOA API. can this be done with Devforce? With all the html5 rave going on...I don't see where you provide a rest/json type solution for any html/ajax/html5 clients. thanks in advance.

Yes, you can do this with DevForce with our OData implementation, which is a cross-platform standard for querying entities.

You can learn more about OData here:

OData can be consumed on most platforms as seen here:

We have an OData tutorial here:

And here is a customer that used DevForce's OData to build an iOS application:
