Achieving Mobile App Development Success with Hybrid Cloud

Description: New processes that support mobile apps require new technical capabilities. Understanding how an app is performing in the hands of the user and how they are interacting with it is critical to being able to address either technical problems or usability issues. It also helps to identify when new capabilities are required. Analytics data captured from app usage will provide the necessary insight to do this. Being responsive to such insights requires rapid development and the ability to quickly deploy app updates to a fragmented production environment. For example, different elements of the app back-end may reside in different IT infrastructures while the app itself may be deployed to a third party catalog such as the Apple App Store or Google Play. Automating the testing and deployment processes through a DevOps methodology supported by the appropriate tools and services will enable development teams to deliver new apps and app updates quickly.
