METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR A MASHUP DASHBOARD

A system, computer-readable medium, and computer-implemented method for using a mashup dashboard can include retrieving a mashup dashboard from a repository, and providing a display of the retrieved mashup dashboard that recreates a visual configuration pre-defined in the stored mashup dashboard. The visual configuration includes a pre-defined mashup executing therein to provide live data from the mashup. The mashup dashboard can be created, by providing a listing of pre-defined mashups and a canvas, the pre-defined mashups being stored in a repository; interacting with the user to define a visual configuration of the canvas and to drag and drop one of the pre-defined mashups from the listing onto the canvas; and storing the visual configuration of the canvas with the pre-defined mashup as a mashup dashboard, for later retrieval to recreate the visual configuration with the pre-defined mashup executing therein.
