Mobility seminar series

A new technical event series of seminars from Red Hat kicks off next week in Brisbane and Perth. Additional seminars will follow across Australia and New Zealand before the end of the month.

The title of the series is ‘Enterprise Mobility — Disrupt or Get Disrupted!’ and it promises to enlighten companies wanting to expose business functions via mobile channels and implement to a ‘mobile everywhere’ strategy.

According to Red Hat, common business drivers include increasing customer engagement, making the workforce more productive, simplifying and automating manual business processes, and gaining competitive advantages through increased innovation velocity.

The response to explosive mobility growth in the enterprise is often a tactical approach that results in an ad hoc mobility architecture. Agility, security, cross-platform support and effective backend integration remain major challenges.

Red Hat’s Mobile Application Platform brings together agility and centralised control to develop, run and manage cross-platform mobile apps, securely integrating with existing backend enterprise systems using MBaaS (mobile-backend-as-a-service).

The event will cover the following topics:

• Mobility is everywhere!
• Case study: How a transport company has revolutionised its business using mobility
• Enterprise mobile apps don’t have to cost a fortune
• Create a mobile app in minutes with easy-to-use drag-and-drop tools
• A ‘real-life’ mobile app example showcasing
  • MBaaS services like caching, data synchronisation, authentication, storage and more;
  • integration with enterprise apps like Salesforce, Oracle DB and SharePoint;
  • mobile mashup service.
• MBaaS, DevOps, security and more

Red Hat aims to provide attendees with key tools and techniques to start harnessing the power of mobility, in a secure and scalable manner. The full list of dates is as follows:
