Mobility Architecture

Page 13: Extending SAP Functionality to Tablet Devices · – Business Case Development – Implementation and Rollout Strategy – System Landscape Analysis – Instance Consolidation –

Where to start

Think solutions not applications

Think big but start small

Think through architecture and strategy then solutions

Think as an end-user not as a technologist

– The UI needs to better than a free application from Apple and finger

friendly

– What information should presented to a user when virtually all information everywhere is potentially

available

Think how to protect the enterprises data without impeding its use
