Why Mobile?
7 billion mobile phones on the planet

More people have cell phones than running water
Mobile labs

Let’s go mobile !
“Today’s mobile devices have more power than
laptops from four years ago”
The mobile device will be the #1 tool for accessing
corporate applications
Today, we’re no longer building Notes Client only
applications !
How?
Mobile labs

Web app
Domino can deliver the Mobile UI
Domino can deliver business logic and content
Mobile labs

Native app
Domino can still be used to deliver business logic
and data
Mobile labs

Conclusion
Reuse your existing Notes apps to build Mobile
apps
Choose between a web app or a native app
Web:
Build Mobile XPages UI for existing Notes app
Low cost + big return
No extra skills or infrastructure needed
Native:
Using webservices, a Notes app can deliver logic and data
Well known look and feel
Well known navigation
Mobile labs

Native apps and EASI
With Appsolution, EASI is now developing
native mobile apps
APM: A native iOS version is being developed
