Seek framework to implement a dashboard

Question

Consider the term 'dashboard' as a generic UI pattern where multiple views stream different aspects of an site - new users, new orders, new questions, and so on. Essentially splitting a stream of log entries, each to its own viewport. Viewports might want to drill down to detail records or might want to hide itself until/unless wakened by some other event.

Working against the IIS7, .net MVC, jQuery stack.

At http://stackoverflow.com/questions/327321/ajax-based-dashboard-on-largedata-asp-net I see recommended: http://www.dynamicdashboards.net/

which looks interesting. Any alternatives?

thx

Answer 1

I use MVC and if you take a close look at this page you can see that i stream a partial view in whenever i change pages. It's not hard to do this yourself. My humble opinion is that a dashboard framework might be overkill and unnecessary complication. I can get you code samples if you like.

Answer 2

There is an alternative open source framework named Dropthings. But capability and support is limited. I'm also looking for an ajax dashboard framework for asp.net and using Oracle. Upto now best seems Dynamic Dashboards.
