Yesterday IBM announced the release of ILOG Elixir 2.5 - the first Elixir release since ILOG was acquired by IBM back in January.
ILOG announced the release of Elixir 2.0 this morning. Elixir is the powerful Flex charting framework available through ILOG. Elixir 2.0 provides several new modules to Flex: a calendar, heat maps, Gannt charts and pivot/OLAP charts. I'm particularly excited about the Gannt charts. I tried to build one of my own sometime last year and found it a much more daunting task than I'd originally imagined.

Just under a year ago the ILOG elixir team released a demo of their Flex charting components using data from the CIA world factbook. A new version of the demo was posted last Friday and looks really good. The new version expands upon the original by using PureMVC for the code, a better theme (by Juan Sanchez), and an updated UI. It also implements a few new views and adds drill down to the tree-map. It's a great example of what Flex was made for: powerful data visualizations that would be immensely difficult in traditional web languages.
The ILOG Elixir team is going to present two sessions at Adobe MAX on their unique visual interface library, and they want to showcase your app. If you've built anything that uses Elixir in the past year or so, check out this recent blog post by the Elixir team and get the publicity you deserve!
ILOG released another preview of the 2.0 version of their charting framework, Elixir, last week. The new release features, among other things:
  • A new Gantt task chart that improves upon the existing 1.0 Gantt chart to cover new use cases.
  • New heatmaps components
  • New OLAP & pivot charts to mimic excel-like pivot charting.
  • Improved flex calendar and numerical indicators components.
