Apple control freak approach discouraging application developers

Despite 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

Virtualization Energizes Cal State University

John Charles is the CIO of California State University, East Bay (CSUEB) and Rich Avila is Director, Server & Network Operations. In late 2007 they were both looking down the barrel of a gun. The total amount of power being used in the data center was 67KVA. The maximum power from the current plant was 75kVA. PG&E had informed them that no more power could be delivered. They would be out of power in less than six months. A new data center was planned, but would not be available for two years.

Featured How-To Note

Storage Virtualization Design and Deployment

A main impediment to storage virtualization is the lack of multiple storage vendor (heterogeneous) support within available virtualization technologies. This inhibits deployment across a data center. The only practical approach is either to implement a single vendor solution across the whole of the data center (practical only for small and some medium size data centers) or to implement virtualization in one or more of the largest storage pools within a data center.

Featured Case Study

Financial giant goes green

The 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.

Planning a Green Storage Initiative

Fluctuating energy prices have heightened electricity and energy consumption as a major issue within the technology community. IT is a significant consumer of energy and IT energy costs have been rising disproportionately because of continued investment in denser IT equipment. Estimates from the EPA and others indicate that IT will account for 3% of energy consumption by 2012.
