What is that?

The availability and capabilities of smartphones, tablets and other mobile devices have continuously increased in recent years. With the help of cloud services and cloud computing, most of us have become accustomed to having access to our personal data, anytime and anywhere. Mobile computing makes data and applications mobile. Increasingly, application logic and business processes shift from traditional, stationary PCs to mobile devices.

Why is it important? What does it mean?

Mobile computing represents the technical requirement for the transition in our work environment. It allows us to work independent of time and place. Naturally, this puts the pressure on corporate IT to make company content, data and technical applications readily available for mobile use. After all, we already take it for granted when it comes to our personal applications and data. Business potentials are enormous. Business processes become more flexible and can be accelerated at high speed. Information becomes more accessible and thus increases quality. A clear competitive advantage is the result for companies that give their customers added value with readily available information. Beyond that, entirely new business models emerge.

What makes Empolis so unique?

Heterogeneity of devices and applications grows with mobile computing. Not just one app exists for everything, but many. With “CLS + IAS = Smart Information Management,” Empolis provides the technology from a single source to offer the diversity needed. This capability is an absolute necessity, when preventing the cost explosion caused by redundancy in the creation and distribution of information.

With the Content Lifecycle System (CLS), existing content is combined precisely in a controlled editorial process for the corresponding application. Content is automatically delivered for the desired device with the help of single source publishing. With the Information Access System (IAS), the required content is aggregated according to context.

Empolis develops customized mobile apps for your specific area of application. For development of backbone applications, Empolis delivers a scalable, high-performance infrastructure that consistently supports modern software standards such as JSON REST and HTML 5.
