Telerik Announces Q3 Release

Telerik Registers Exponential Growth of Its Portfolio

Telerik, a leading vendor of developer tools and user interface components for .NET, is excited to announce the Q3 2008 release of its RadControls UI components and Report designer.

Telerik registers significant growth in its developer tools portfolio by adding an enterprise-grade ORM product and a rich suite of components for Silverlight, thus making it the widest product line on the market.

New products

Telerik is proud to present RadControls for Silverlight - the richest set of components for next-generation line-of-business applications.

The great performance of the components is guaranteed by the smart use of data virtualization and Load on Demand mechanism, which results in significant performance gains.

RadControls for Silverlight are fully stylable through Microsoft Expression Blend. Thanks to its full interoperability with ASP.NET AJAX, they can be used to enhance existing web applications.

Another manifestation of Telerik’s urge to offer complete developer solutions is the newly-acquired ORM product OpenAccess – an enterprise-grade tool, used by companies in very demanding scenarios.

Supporting both forward and reverse mapping, it offers transparent persistence for your DAL and business objects. Advanced techniques like multi-level caching and fetch plans deliver substantial performance optimizations. 

RadControls for WPF

Q3 2008 release of RadControls for WPF concentrates on rich data visualization and interactivity by introducing powerful and completely stylable charting, gauge and scheduling controls. Through powerful rendering, rich data binding support and attractive animations the new additions to the suite take data visualization to another level.  

RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX

The ASP.NET AJAX suite further establishes its position as the most mature toolset for building rich web applications.

One of the focal points is that RadControls for ASP.NET AJAX now can work in the new Microsoft ASP.NET MVC framework. Due to the integration with the newly-acquired OpenAccess ORM, important data access capabilities were delivered to all databound controls. 

RadControls for WinForms

The axis of the new release is the new RadScheduler control, which offers rich Outlook®-style functionality with swift performance, simplified deployment and limitless customization capabilities. Another essential addition to the Telerik WinForms suite is the ability to apply advanced Rich Text formatting to all products. 

Telerik Reporting

Telerik Reporting delivers enhanced performance by introducing a completely new report rendering engine, which allows for speedy report generation, better allocation of server resources, and optimized report layout management.
