MobileFirst – Business in Motion
New Workloads – Changing Landscapes
Agile Application Infrastructure
Design for Digital Strategy

Mobile is primary91% of mobile users keep their device within arm’s reach 100% of the time
Insights from mobile data provide new
opportunities 75% of mobile shoppers
take action after receiving a location based messages
Mobile is about transacting96% year to year increase in mobile cyber
Monday sales between 2012 and 2011
Mobile must create a continuous brand
experience90% of users use multiple screens as channels come
together to create integrated experiences
Mobile enables the Internet of Things
Global Machine-to-machine connections will increase
from 2 billion in 2011 to 18 billion at the end of 2022
A business in motion must be mobile first

So what is changing the Landscape?
New business models and paradigms
Drivers
Social Media goes mainstream• Everyone wants to be on
Facebook/linkedin etc
• Every solution is compared to scalability and availability like social networks
• Capitalize on ‘perceived’ new markets on social network.
Emerging Channels of commerce• New breed of personal
devices
• Speed of commerce
• Low tolerance for ‘slow’ experience
Proliferation of ‘smart’ phones - Mobility• Defining new engagement
Models
• Exponential growth of Mobile Devices
• New System of Engagements
• Emerging markets – New Platforms
Globalization!!• Single market for
everything
• Everything is linked

Scalability
Scalability is a desirable property of a system, a network, or a process, which indicates its ability to either handle growing amounts of work in a graceful manner or to be readily enlarged. (Wikipedia)
For example, it can refer to the capability of a system to increase total throughput under an increased load when resources (typically hardware) are added.
Scale up vs. Scale Out

Scalability Vs. Performance
• It is the ability not only to function well in the rescaled situation, but to actually take full advantage of it.
• For example, an application program would be scalable if it could be moved from a smaller to a larger system and take full advantage of the larger system in terms of performance (user response time/Throughput)
• Larger number of users that could be handled.
• Response Times (Fast!)• Throughput (Increased!)
Achieved Scaling up/Scaling Out Not most cost efficient Advanced Tuning? Scaling the hardware does not
work in all cases

How we connect
What’s changing:
… of employed adults use at least
one personal mobile device for business 3
…of adults expect a mobile transaction
experience to be better than using
a laptop or PC 2
How often the average mobile
user checks their phone each day 1
What we expect How we work

Designing for a robust Digital Strategy?
• IT strategies treat technology in isolation. • Silo’ed Approach — on a cloud strategy, social
strategy, or mobile strategy. • Meaningful solutions - seek pervasive digital
connections in which the individual technologies (cloud, near field communications, mobile, big data, etc.)
• Aim - to deliver an experience that looks and feels an awful lot like our natural behavior.
• Rich Interactions - more connections between people, places, information, and things (aka digital density), the more customers can interact with companies and each other in a seamless and satisfying way.
• Is your Application Infrastructure Design ready for This?
IT strategy does not equate to a digital strategy.

IBM Worklight - Build and Development
© 2014 IBM Corporation19 #IBMMobile
Why IBM Worklight?
Build "native" , hybrid, or mobile web because the real value is in the platform, administration, up-keep, security, adapters, and integration layer we provide better than anyone else. – Integration
Mobile Middleware provides a layer of indirection, which allows for the back end services to be shifted without affecting the end point. - Flexibility
Ability to surgically enable and disable Application specific to a platform, administratively provide platform specific messages - Control.
Arms the enterprise to adapt and fit into to current Enterprise Security platform ( authentication, authorization and security policy enforcement etc) – Security
Avenue to exploit existing services ( SOA Model) and since these services were design for Web Application, Mobile middleware allows for filtering and altering the content, prior to sending the response back to end use. - Flexibility, control and reuse and Optimization of existing enterprise services.
Mobile Specific Services - Unified push notification, SMS and devices specific notifications etc, provide an avenue to address these via platform. and more….
