Intermedia Fotoficient has a unique technology to create really portable widgets, that share the same versatility: they adapt to any size in the hosting page container. With a simple <SCRIPT> tag, placed at the designated position within the HTML page, it automatically adapts to the correct size.
We call this technology Bootloading. A simple tag is included, e.g. within a portlets wrapping container, and that's all there is to be done. For widgets, that are based on the OpenSocial standard, there already is a versatile wrapper included. It really is that simple. And it's not limited to Intermedias native datasources or modules.
Intermedia Fotoficient makes use of a versatile connector technology and combines imported datasources with a strong caching infrastructure. This takes strain from the original datasource and enables Intermedia to deliver graphical information with its high-power rendering technologies. Built to deliver fast.
Transcodings (for images and also related metadata) are performed on the fly at each request and enable a widget to get a unique flexibility to adapt to screen and window sizes requirements actually used, without compromising to a fixed templated infrastructure.
