Introduction to Managing Mobile Devices using Linux for System z

In 2012, IBM announced the IBM Mobile Foundation and in 2013 IBM MobileFirst. This session will provide an overview of these topics plus news on the latest releases and describe the supported Linux environments on System z. The objective is to make the System z Linux system programmer literate in the components of IBM Mobile Foundation and MobileFirst and the runtime capabilities of the specific product named IBM Worklight. In addition, an overview of z related mobile capabilities will be reviewed including CICS, Message Broker and MQ. As enterprises work to gain control of the challenging mobile environment, System z has a role in deploying mobile applications and mobile devices.
