Hi,
What is Alfresco Surf platform used for?.
Checking out the slides and reading from the wiki, it seems its a platform for rendering and presenting the web content using templates and
java scripts. Can it also be used for large applications involving complex business logic, querying the database and displaying the content in the view?
If yes, how?
Thanks

The surf platform is the base of the Share and Studio web applications.   It is suitable for large applications but is primarily a view tier technology,  not a replacement for the "heavy lifting" which needs to go on something like a Java Application Server, and in alfresco's case the alfresco repository.
