1 Mobile Application Development Adopt Based On Fit

2 Make Mobile Part of Overall Controls

3 The revolution is only beginning Mobile application development is the process by which application software is developed for low-power handheld devices, such as personal digital assistants, enterprise digital assistants or mobile phones.

5 Mobile Enterprise Application Platforms SAP IBM (Worklight) Antenna Adobe (with its acquisition of Nitobi, maker of PhoneGap) Kony Appcelerator (Titanium Mobile) Sencha RhoMobile (acquired by Motorola, and then Google) Verivo (previously called Pyxis) A MEAP environment providing tools for developing, testing, deploying and managing applications provides application synchronization for online/offline use provides or requires core and device database manufacturers enables access to multiple core system types security integration to CA and Directory may provide corporate application store

6 Select Based On Need Enterprise or Consumer??? Device & Operating System Support Which device manufacturers are supported? What device features are accessible and controllable? Is the application transportable across operating systems? Application Management What is supplied in the SDK for versioning? Is application access control in the tool? Does an App store capability come with the tool? What controls are available for OTA updates, delete?

7 Select Based On Need (continued) Architecture & Security Is Single Sign On supported and how? Do security controls match with your standards? Are there limitations for cross architecture (Onsite/Cloud/Hosted)? Integration Do you have to build extensions to your existing systems (web services, proprietary, API)? What performance monitoring and tuning tools are available? What are the data replication requirements and how will these impact your existing databases and data control?

8 Select Based On Need (continued) General Is User Experience and Use Interface development part of the tool? Does the tool provide for multiple languages? What testing tools do the tools support or provide? What user tracking tools are provided or integrate to? What training is available? What is the availability of experienced people (architects, designers, developers, tuners, security, support)? Is the tool following endorsed standards and how are unique device manufacture requirements handled? How is the tool priced (per user, by device, enterprise, consumer)
