WikitipApple control freak approach discouraging application developersDespite the appearance of the Apple AppStore, many leading mobile application developers have not launched products for the iPhone/Touch. They have two important concerns about the iPhone platform: First, while it has a blow-away appearance, its underlying capabilities are actually much simpler than the WinMobile or even Palm platforms, making it difficult to replicate advanced features; and second, because the Appstore is the only retail outlet for iPhone applications, Apple has huge power over third-party software suppliers. It has already shown that power by denying access to the store to at least one vendor because its application had functionality similar to a product from Apple. This iron control, which is typical of Apple, may be opening the door to Android, which has finally reached the market with a much more technically advanced platform and an open source mentality. Organizations should evaluate the capabilities of both the base platforms and available software before choosing a corporate standard mobile device. |
Featured Case Study
Financial giant goes greenThe corporate IT group of a very large, worldwide financial organization with 100,000 employees, has initiated an ongoing “greening” process. This is focused largely on reducing energy use both to decrease the corporation's carbon footprint while creating a net savings in operational costs over the lifetime of new, more energy-efficient equipment, including new storage systems. |

IT is a significant consumer of energy and IT energy costs have been rising disproportionately because of continued investment in denser IT equipment.
