"Visit http://www.ibm.com/services/mobility to learn how IBM is using new technologies, applications and mobile devices to enable a smarter, more productive workforce. This short video shares IBM's journey enabling a flexible, mobile enterprise."
"While it's relatively easy to use these SDKs in native applications, its still not straightforward to do so in a hybrid or mobile web application, which are becoming more popular with the cross-platform advantage they offer. So if I'm developing, say, a hybrid app, how do I use say, the Google AdMob SDK, which is primarily for an Android app? IBM Worklight, part of the IBM Mobile Foundation is a powerful development platform which allows you to do this easily."
"Another, relatively less explored way of advertising when you do not want to go through the ad networks or just want to use your app to advertise your own business, is to use IBM Worklight adapters and push notifications."
"Innovate 2012 will show you how to harness the power of software-driven innovation to deliver smarter products and improve business outcomes. IBM Rational will share the stage with customers, business partners and your peers to show you how you can make the most of your investments now by managing complexity, lowering risk, and driving down costs."
"IBM has been steadily investing in the mobile space for more than a decade, both organically and through acquisitions: building a complete portfolio of software and services that delivers enterprise-ready mobility for clients. Increasingly, enterprises are reaching beyond their traditional IT boundaries by consuming new Cloud services and creating new mobile applications for employees and customers for broad consumption by customers, partners and developers."
"IBM also added ways for enterprises to bring their current data and services to mobile devices. New capabilities in IBM DataPower appliances are designed to help IT departments quickly bring their existing resources to mobile devices. WebSphere Cast Iron, based on technology the company acquired through its 2010 buyout of hybrid cloud software vendor Cast Iron, can help enterprises link mobile applications to clouds and other back-end infrastructure, according to IBM."
"Looking to give solution providers a leg up in the mobile computing market that is expected to grow from $22 billion in 2012 to $36 billion by 2015, IBM today rolled out Mobile Foundation, a portfolio of IBM mobile computing technologies that are designed to simplify the management of mobile computing and applications in the enterprise."
"Building on its recent acquisition of Worklight, the new foundation further expands IBM's strategy to provide clients with a mobile platform that spans application development, integration, security and management. For example, using the IBM Mobile Foundation, an airline can transform the way it interacts with its customers by establishing a secure two-way relationship with mobile applications, IBM said. Now, they can use their applications not only to keep customers apprised of their travel plans and current weather conditions, but also send push-notifications to alert them if there are changes or opportunities for upgrades. This is all made possible by deep integration into the airlines' back-end systems and relevant cloud services."
"IBM has wasted no time in exploiting the technology it acquired through its January purchase of mobile apps platform provider Worklight, which underpins the new Mobile Foundation release. At its Impact show in Las Vegas on Monday, the firm launched a new set of mobile tools that let developers build a single application and then run it across multiple mobile platforms, such as Apple's IOS, Google's Android and RIM's Blackberry.:
"The CIOs I talk with describe the avalanche of projects they face. Almost three quarters of the CIOs say they are investing in mobile deployments this year, of which one-third of those will be deployed in a cloud. However, 70 percent of their budgets, on average, are still spent on maintenance and 34 percent of their projects are late. It's a vicious cycle."
"A group of industry leaders sit down to discuss how PureSystems will change the overall experience and economics of IT, and what this means for their businesses."
"Organizations shouldn’t have to spend so much on routine operations. A commissioned study* conducted by Forrester Consulting on behalf of IBM shows that integrated systems can cut substantial amounts of time and budget for many common IT projects. For instance, pre-integration can make it possible to install and put to use new computing systems in hours rather than days. By handling routine tasks much more efficiently and effectively, that frees up time and money for companies to innovate—trying out new technologies and new business models."
"IBM (NYSE:IBM) today announced a major step forward in a new, simpler era of computing with the introduction of a new category of "expert integrated systems." This new family is the first with built-in expertise based on IBM's decades of experience running IT operations for tens of thousands of clients in 170 countries. IBM’s expert integrated systems family – PureSystems – is the result of $2 billion in R&D and acquisitions over four years, an unprecedented move by IBM to integrate all IT elements, both physical and virtual. The new systems family offers clients an alternative to today’s enterprise computing model, where multiple and disparate systems require significant resources to set up and maintain."
"I.B.M. is bringing its answer to the marketplace on Wednesday — an effort that industry executives and analysts say is the most ambitious step yet to simplify and streamline data center technology. With this initiative, I.B.M. will sell bundles of server hardware and software packaged in simplified systems, with setup and maintenance automated by intelligent software. Tasks that now take days or weeks can be reduced to hours, the company claims."
"International Business Machines Corp. (IBM) (IBM) is taking on Oracle Corp. (ORCL) (ORCL) and Cisco Systems Inc. (CSCO) (CSCO) with server computers and software packaged and automated to reduce the time and money clients spend on “scut work.” The world’s largest computer-services provider built what it calls PureSystems over four years, delivering server systems that are easier to install, automate, update and manage, IBM said in a statement. That frees information-technology staff to work on more valuable, business-specific tasks, it said."
:IBM PureSystems is the integration platform with all of these capabilities. It offers compute, networking, and storage capabilities with standard components; a virtualization engine and a high level systems management appliance to manage all the resources (14 compute nodes, the Enterprise Chassis, SAN networking switches, storage, and more); it supports resource pooling and intelligent automation for dynamic VM placement and fast deployment of services."
"IBM CIO Jeanette Horan has plenty of IT projects and systems to worry about, but perhaps one of the most pressing and timely is Big Blue's ongoing BYOD (bring your own device) rollout, which is aimed at including all of the company's 440,000 employees over time."
"Many companies, including IBM, have stepped in to produce security solutions to this growing need. Kimber Spradlin, who is an Endpoint Management and Security Specialist at IBM, spoke to Opinno about how the mobile working ecosystem is evolving to facilitate greater functionality while maintaining security."
"The latest version of WebSphere Application Server (WAS), V8.5 Beta - Liberty Profile, is now available via free download. If you think you already know WAS, this version may surprise you. The WAS V8.5 Beta - Liberty Profile, is small, fast and free, because you told us that’s what you wanted."
"By IBM’s own admission, weather forecasting seemed like an unusual use for its supercomputing technology. But 16 years after it began work the parallel processing supercomputing system that would become known as “Deep Thunder” —- a targeted weather forecasting program — IBM has taken the technology mobile, putting it on an iPad app and showing it off to lawmakers on Capitol Hill at a breakfast event on Wednesday and to reporters at its New York offices later in the week."
