Creating the Next Killer Mobile App

Today's mobile applications deliver a personalized experience to the user by taking advantage of the mobile context, physical location, touch, accelerometers, and other means of input. There are a number of challenges to overcome when delivering a mobile solution, such as interoperating across different mobile platforms, creating a consistent look and feel, scaling to a growing user base and ensuring adequate performance. This webinar will focus on some of the best practices in architecting the next killer mobile app with Sun's technologies. The session will also cover how to efficiently design the front end components, as well as how to scale on the server side using REST-style Web Services, Glassfish, and MySQL. The talk will conclude with a demo of a mobile app from Micello that embraces the principles mentioned in the talk.


White Papers

Open Storage Adoption White Paper
Years ago, servers were closed, proprietary and expensive. Open systems hit the market and outgrew proprietary computer architectures by meeting the needs of high-scale computing in a much more affordable way. Today's server vendors, in fierce competition, drive rapid technical innovation at market-driven prices.

Based on industry-leading server and operating system technology, Sun opens the closed world of storage systems to innovation and market choice. By delivering industry-standard hardware and releasing a comprehensive suite of storage software to open source via the OpenSolaris Storage community, Sun has broken the final barriers to building state-of-the-art storage systems with truly open architectures.
