19. Agenda Why Reasons for Web Enabling Mobilizing What Assess current Portfolio of applications Prioritize Application selected for web enabling/mobilizing Additional Concerns Device considerations UI considerations Connectivity Security Links to more information Summary Questions

20. NOTE! This is NOT a technical Session If you are looking for the How then this session is not for you.

21. Why? Why would we want to Mobilize/Web enable our existing IBM Notes Applications?

22. Why? Reasons for Web Enabling Eliminate Notes Client Reduce License Costs Reduce Support issues Expand applications to external stakeholders End users are not employees Cant dictate use of Notes Client Easier to web enable than full scale migration Reasons for Mobilizing

23. Why? Source - http://www.businessinsider.com/the-future-of-mobile-deck-2012-3?op=1

24. Why? Source - http://www.businessinsider.com/the-future-of-mobile-deck-2012-3?op=1

25. Why? Smartphones brought Access to corporate email More ubiquitous access More modern look and feel

26. What? Were going Mobile? OMG!! There need not be a corresponding web/mobile version for every application in the enterprise. Data intensive tasks executed in back-office applications are not a good fit for web/mobile applications. Mobile applications don't address every situation. You dont need to mobilize every form, view, agent, etc.

27. What? No Comment

28. The Process 1. Asses current environment 2. Evaluate application complexity 3. Identify first win

29. Assess Current Environment Find unused applications first Use customized database catalog Activity not really relevant 3rd party tools and services This is just good practice in keeping your environment clean Check ACLs Default Access as Manager? Databases with test or a date in the name/filepath Template inheritance

30. Assess Current Environment Find applications that are not business critical (Recipe swapping database) One client had a database titled Recipes, that actually held recipes used in production of their products. Not always easy Find business owner(if possible). Find out what applications are used for. Can use a spreadsheet to track, or be creative and create a notes application

31. Evaluate Application Complexity Assess business process of remaining applications Determine what makes sense to mobilize. Look at workflow. Look at complexity. Look at amount of data needed to complete the process. Do I need 35 forms, 4 sub-forms, 50 views, and 7 agents to do the task?

32. Evaluate Application Complexity Prioritize Application selected for web enabling/mobilizing. Effort to web enable/mobilize High Not many views and forms, easy workflow processes, limited data needed to function. Medium a larger number of views and forms, a few more complicated workflows, more data needed to function. Low Very complicated workflow apps with lookups to backend systems. Many views, forms, agents, Etc. Large amounts of data required to function

33. Evaluate Application Complexity

34. Identify first win Prioritize Application selected for web enabling/mobilizing. Business criticality High Having mobile/web is Business critical Medium Having mobile/web would have some business impact Low Seldom used, non mission critical

35. Identify first win Additional Concerns Device considerations PcsLaptops Typically web browser access TabletsSmartphones Native apps or web browser access Types of Application Simple approval Form fill Reference

36. Identify first win Additional Concerns UI considerations Different screen sizes base on client. PcsLaptops TabletsSmartphones Do I try a one app fits all approach?

37. Identify first win Additional Concerns Connectivity Will the users have Wi-Fi or 3/4G connections? Is there a need for data offline in mobile devices? Device storage (If offline access is needed) Is being able to access applications where there is no connectivity a requirement? Speed of connection will affect how the application should be designed Ever try to get a signal in downtown Manhattan? Do you have an unlimited data plan for you mobile devices? Do they even still exist?

38. Identify first win Additional Concerns Security Loss of mobile devices Access network remotely You should already have a Mobile Device Management (MDM) solution in place. IBM Notes Traveler ( at a minimum) AirWatch, MobileIron, or other 3rd party solutions

39. Summary Do Go for the quick wins first. Then move on to more complicated/ advanced functionality apps Do Not Take a 32GB CRM solution and try to mobilize the entire app Require a 32 page document to be read prior to action in the mobile/web application
