There seems to a bit of confusion (perhaps in my own mind) regarding
what is meant by a RIA. To me a RIA is a presentation tier
technology/approach the combines the reach of the web with the richness
of traditional rich client apps.. Examples would be AJAX, Flash, Java
plug-in's, Microsoft's Silverlight etc.
While these technologies can be used to build the UIs for solutions that
use SO approaches, RIAs have no dependency on SOA.

Subject: [service-orientated-architecture] Visual web
applications: Ajax+SOA=RIA?
All,
I've been experimenting with building visual web applications -
I used frevvo <http://www.frevvo.com> and Restlet
<http://www.restlet.org> (I work for frevvo). I've posted a couple of
blog articles about my experiences and I was wondering how other people
are building visual web applications with SOA, and particularly your
experiences using Ajax. (BTW, I used REST for my web applications but I
consider it to be a simpler subset of SOA.)
You can find much more including diagrams, examples and source
code at:
How do I use my brand new WOA?

I'd be very interested in your thoughts: is Ajax + SOA = RIA
(Rich Internet Application) ?
Thx,
-Ashish
