Java Services : Integrate existing Java code. Web Services : Connect with web services created using WSDL, REST or RSS. Databases : Connect to almost any relational data source and import schema. Security : Use LDAP, database security, rolebased access controls and single-sign on solutions. Flexible Deployment : WaveMaker Studio creates standard WAR _les that can be deployed to any JDK 1.5+ Java Server. One-click Cloud Deployment : Applications built in WaveMaker Studio can deploy directly to EC2. RightScale Integration : For multi-server deployments, WaveMaker integrates with RightScale's cloud management platform .

JavaScript Object Notation lightweight data-interchange format easy to read and to write (for humans) easy to parse and generate (for machines) completely language independent, also similar to C-family of languages reduces bandwidth requirements by reducing the amount of traffic between the client (Web Browser) and the server (Web / App Server).

Hibernate usage can be a potential performance bottleneck. When creating or editing the table structure extra care is needed since all the data in the database can be lost. The modification of the data model incurs another import of the entire data source – in the development phase this can mean serious headaches. Does not support RPC/encoded style WSDL -> not all WSs are supported.
