Mobile is a platform. NOT a product. Our most important
learning.
Optimal development process Business Logic Web API / Mobile App
Public API
How to unleash mobility? • Empower every product team •
Distribute ownership • Establish a platform team
Empower every product team • Mobile ambassadors • Maintain strong
relationships • 2 developers per technology
Make sure you hire the right people. Who share the
same culture and values.
Distribute ownership • Logical split of the application • Introduction
of UI patterns • Independent development cycles • Release trains
App architecture Configuration / API / Tools UI Patterns Stream
Jobs Industry News Profile …
Establish a platform team • Central components • Quality control
• Releases • Automation
Everyone lives and breathes mobile. The right mindset is one
of the biggest challenges.
