Using Mobile@Connector for creating mobile applications starting from an existing application:
We created Mobile@Connector - a tool enabling creating mobile applications starting from an existing database. See more
An existing application contains much more useful information (from Mobile@Connector's point of view) than a database. Mobile@Connector accesses the information by using so called adapters which deliver information about:
metadata structure
detailed (and not only rough) forms design/logic
detailed data validation
detailed navigations structure
permissions (users, user groups, etc.)
business logic
thereafter Mobile@Connector creates a mobile application using the automatically created definition, and installs it on the server fully automatically
IMPORTANT
This approach is possible only if an adapter for the given application exists
To see how an adapter works, see flash movies of mobilization services created around adapters' concept for several solutions like Microsoft Dynamics CRM or Salesforce.com
Adapters can be created for practically all applications:
any technology can be used to create them
even if an application is not able to run offline/synchronize Mobile@Connector - using an adapter - makes it able to work this way.
The adapter specification is open: they can be created by Logotec Engineering and external companies as well. We are currently in the process of creating more adapters for Mobile@Connector.
