New PointBase White Paper Discusses Mobility Requirements and Solutions for the Enterprise
White Paper Provides "How's and Why's" for Architects and
CXOs Tasked With Executing Corporate Mobility Initiatives
SANTA CLARA, Calif. – April 07, 2003 – By 2006 it is estimated that over 39 million workers will rely on enterprise mobility solutions. PointBase recognizes that such solutions have evolved from simply providing a competitive advantage to becoming a competitive requirement. A new white paper published by PointBase, titled “Maximizing Competitiveness in Today's Business Environments: Developing Mobility Solutions for the Enterprise,” discusses the impact of mobility on today's business environments and analyzes the challenges faced by companies making this transition.
The paper provides crucial insights into the challenges of providing mobile workers with precisely the information they need, when and where they need it. It addresses these challenges by outlining selection criteria decision makers in the enterprises need to consider while designing mobile database solutions for extended applications. A companion PointBase white paper, “Development Considerations for Mobile Enterprise Applications,” has been updated and expanded to cover new developments in this rapidly evolving technology area. Both papers highlight the strategic advantages Java database and synchronization products can provide to developers of enterprise mobility solutions.
Some of the factors that must be weighed in the design of enterprise mobility solutions include how to maximize application portability across a variety of platforms and devices, how to preserve and leverage existing corporate IT investments and how to reduce time to market. Both PointBase white papers provide guidance and insight into how these factors can best be addressed in the development process.
