Evolving Mobile Landscape - Challenges • Mobile Development is more expensive than traditional Web App Development: • Which smartphone? Which tablet? Which form factor? • iOS, Android, Blackberry, Windows Phone • All of the above.. • Skills? • Web or native apps? Java or Objective C? Or other? • Maintenance? • Separate software stacks for each major OS • Separate applications for each major OS • How do I keep software current? • Security? • Encryption? Authentication? • Response to stolen/lost devices? • Management? • Can I see my apps? Can I disable them remotely? • Enterprise Integration? • How do I build cross-channel app? • Since the Mobile field is still evolving, so an enterprise would want to pick a platform that can adapt to the future.
Summary of key mobile development challenges Developing for multiple mobile platforms Delivering high quality apps that engage users and meet business objectives • Highly fragmented set of platforms, devices, languages, and tools increases cost and complexity of development and test • Choosing not to support one or more platforms reduces the reach of an application • Poor quality can negatively impact brand image • Bad ratings and comments can cause other users to avoid trying an app Integrating with enterprise systems Meeting accelerated time to market requirements • Recreating instead of leveraging existing business logic increases maintenance costs and risk of inconsistent behavior • Lack of ready back-end services slows front-end development and increases potential for last minute integration issues • Hand-off errors and delays between teams slows progress and responsiveness to features and fixes • Misalignment of stakeholders results in late rework and increased cycle times

It is a full mobile middleware
Challenge 1: Fragmentation and developing for multiple mobile platforms • Several major platforms with their own • Tools • Languages, APIs, and programming models • App stores • Ecosystems • Fragmentation within platforms, including • Physical device differences • Version incompatibilities • Vendor customizations • And this market is moving very fast – new things are introduced • all the time • Worklight addresses this challenge by supporting an open, hybrid mobile application architecture Apple iPhone, iPad Windows Mobile BlackBerry Android
Challenge 2: Design and functional quality are both critical to the success of a mobile application • Customers now know better – they know what good user experience is and they demand it • Business-to-Consumer (B2C) applications • Line of Business wants these applications to improve customer satisfaction, drive customer engagement and loyalty • These apps are the new faces of the business • User experience is key to brand perception • Business-to-Employee (B2E) applications • Increase worker productivity, improve responsiveness and decision making speed • Poor user experience directly compromises the value of the application
Ensuring high app quality – both design and functional Integrated requirements, planning, and quality management with Rational Requirements Composer and Rational Quality Manager Client Challenge Delivering apps that align with business goals and are perceived as high quality – both from a user experience and functional point of view. Key Capabilities • End-to-end integration across the development lifecycle, including design and test phases • UI sketching and storyboarding • Design requirements management • Collaborative reviews and approvals • Test plan optimization to minimize number of tests required to be executed • Integration with mobile “Device-cloud” testing services (e.g. DeviceAnywhere and Perfecto Mobile) and automated testing Mobile Device Cloud
Mobile UI JEE Services Challenge 3: Integrating with existing systems • Mobile applications need to connect to enterprise back-end data and services • Existing programs and services may need to be refactored to be made mobile-consumable • Mobile-optimized services have different characteristics than traditional web services (payload size, incremental data access, etc) • Mobile application development lifecycle needs to bridge the multiple teams responsible for different parts of the mobile application • Testing multi-tiered mobile applications can be slowed due to: • All integrations with back-end must be available to test entire app through the UI • Test environments are expensive, difficult and time consuming to configure • Difficult and time consuming to isolate defect root cause • Agile methodologies need fast iterations but testing delays are becoming a bottleneck Mainframe EGL Database
