z Technical Summit Track 3 Session 4 Developing mobilefirst app for z

Editor's Notes

• #8: This is what we will service enable
• #12: SO – how do we make this service?
• #18: There are multiple deployments of mobile in z, dependant on audience of the app – B2B, B2C, each requires different types of security
• #20: Mention CICS TG (in place of z/OS Connect) Particularly useful for customers with CTG infrastructure today or want direct Restful interface to CICS applications running in older versions of CICS Link: Look at each topology in turn, capabilities, deployment scenarios and benefits
• #21: Example for broad B2C DataPower in DMZ Payload protection DDOS protection Workload balancing
• #22: This use case is about connecting your mobile apps to your enterprise data. In this scenario, a business needs a Mobile Gateway for their Security & Integration needs. Its about doing critical functions such as validation, security checks like authentication and authorization, data transformation, protocol mediation, caching, and intelligent routing & load distribution. ----------------- Key DataPowr capabilities: SSL Offload Threat Protection Rate Limiting Validation, Filtering now with Native JSON Support** Authentication z/OS identity propagation Authorization OAuth 2.0 Security Token Translation (e.g SAML) Transformation Content-Based Routing Intelligent Load Distribution Response Caching Locally or to XC10 ** ** Available in DataPower firmware version 6.0 Link: example of threat protect capabilities
• #23: <A> Add notes Link: DP and CICS mobile security topology
• #24: 1. Client Server again (but a way to fix issues) 1a. App Center 1b. Automaticate update 2. JSON translation built in 3. Adapters 4. Authentication (user,device, application) 5. Push notifications 6. Analytics 7. Console
• #25: Review list Link: Worklight and CICS security topology Misc notes Protect the data on the device - Worklight provides two capabilities: encrypted on-device storage and offline authentication. Encrypted on-device storage provides security for the data stored on the device by encrypting the data using the advanced encryption standard (AES) algorithm with 256-bit keys generated using the public-key cryptography standards #5 (PKCS5) algorithm based on a user supplied password and Worklight internal mechanisms. Offline authentication is needed when the mobile application does not have network connectivity, but user verification is still needed to access the on-device data. In these scenarios, the encrypted storage itself can be used to authenticate the user, because the encrypted data can only be unlocked using the correct password supplied by the user. Therefore the encrypted storage can be utilized to achieve more secure offline authentication.
• #26: Some were used – all could be used to produce higher value, better sharing, more secure, more scalable implementations
• #27: IBM is recognized as a leader in Gartner, Inc.’s 2013 Magic Quadrant for Application Development Life cycle Management (ADLM) report (link) New Announcement at Pulse 2014: DevOps Services (JazzHub) for IBM Cloud Platform JazzHub (www.jazzhub.com) is IBM’s DevOps solution in the cloud. The JazzHub capabilities allow you to develop and collaborate on software projects in the cloud and to deploy them on BlueMix (see description below) Fully hosted Web IDE, task tracking, agile planning, integrated source control (Git or Jazz SCM) or connection to GitHub repository and auto deployment to BlueMix provide everything you need to develop and deploy your next app, feature or product quickly and with high quality. JazzHub is optimized for use with BlueMix (see description below) to provide a streamlined rapid development experience with built-in DevOps capabilities. JazzHub provides free public projects and fee-based Private projects (free during BlueMix Beta), and enables fully browser-based development through built-in Eclipse Orion technology, and directly supports the Eclipse and Visual Studio IDE's. What is BlueMix (Open Beta, BlueMix is the code name for now) BlueMix is a comprehensive, cloud-based application development and hosting platform. It provides developers of modern web and mobile applications with: Tools to author their web and mobile apps, and tools to make them available on the cloud A scalable, cloud-based infrastructure to deploy and administer their apps - based on a variety of different run-times (Java-based application servers, Ruby, JavaScript, etc.) A wide variety of ready-to-use services (such as persistence, messaging, caching, analytics, etc.)  exposed through APIs and transparently provisioned by the platform at run-time. Developers can dramatically reduce time-to-value - organizations can dramatically reduce operational costs.   Read more about BlueMix FAQ here: https://releaseblueprints.ibm.com/display/CLOUDOE/Internal+FAQ COLLABORATIVE DEVELOPMENT – FOCUS ON COLLABORATIVE LIFECYCLE MANAGEMENT (RTC, RRQ, RQM) In multitier and heterogeneous IT environments, there are different cultural, organizational and process challenges to overcome. There needs to be coordination across all of the stakeholders involved. From the customer to the lines of business on through to development, testing, deployment and operations, when everyone is on the same page we know that quality and speed will improve. This is an area where IBM has been strongly focused. IBM offers a collaborative software delivery platform for Power Systems* clients that allows IT staff in development and operations to work together effectively. Central to this is the capability to leverage skills, knowledge and processes across multiple development languages and operating systems, including Mainframe, Linux on Z, IBM i, AIX and Power Linux. We built the Rational Collaborative Lifecycle Management (CLM) solution, which is our platform to support agile development for our Power customers, to address these requirements. From the business planners who identify the need for competitive mobile access channels, to the operations staff who are delivering the service-level agreements—all of those constituencies can now be brought together in the same environment to review plans, share data and provide feedback. This is a solution that brings a single, integrated platform for any development need – whether it is mobile, cloud, agile, mainframe, midrange or traditional including z – these capabilities are built on the Jazz Platform and will unify across a diverse environment and frees up the team by automating time-consuming tasks. In fact we have clients like Itaú BBA, a Corporate Investment Bank of the Itaú Unibanco group and one of the world’s largest financial conglomerates, has reported “55% time saved on deployment” and TestPro, an IBM business partner focused on software quality and testing services, reported a “99% reduced time for testing” when they implemented CLM with Rational Functional Tester and Rational Performance Tester and leveraged the IBM SmartCloud Enterprise to make their testing solution available to their customers. What’s New? CLM – RRC, RTC, RQM, RSA with DM With CLM, we are excited to roll out a continuous delivery model for CLM capabilities – we are following our own DevOps approach and have built a continuous delivery pipeline that starts in June and will release quarterly. Having releases more often allows teams to streamline their adoption with new capabilities available more often. Another way to get to market faster is to incorporate testing earlier and more often in the lifecycle – and leveraging service virtualization is a way to achieve “continuous testing” – we have simplified this ability with a new integration for Rational Test Workbench in CLM You can extend CLM with Rational Software Architect and Design Manager Improved design collaboration and traceability involving extended lifecycle workflows for actively managed designs PRACTITIONERS time sheet data is made available for reporting and they can see Visual Studio in “my work view” – so less wasted less time What’s New? RRC – [NOTE: Rational Team Concert and Rational Quality Manager also have enhancements and we will cover those as well later in the presentation] Software delivery teams that can apply agile and iterative processes are going to win, especially in a fast-paced market. So getting the requirements right up front is critical and then managing them efficiently and effectively throughout the lifecycle can make the difference in time to market and quality compared to your competition. Enabling developers and business analysts with capabilities to make better decisions while improving their efficiency especially to collaborate with customers and stakeholders will vastly increase the teams ability to deliver faster and with a quality end result. Improve visibility and downstream impact across the lifecycle because you can now simplify the connection to tests and plans to the requirements even if the test team is using HP Quality Center because there is now a Lifecycle Integration Adapter for HPQC You can also connect models and elements to requirements with common OSLC standards for RRC and Rational Software Architect Design Management Broaden collaboration because there is a new “artifact locking” your multi-user environment can stay organized with a “single version of the truth” Make better decisions with deeper analysis because traceability now has even more detail and business analysts can now compare collections to a version of the same collections [Asked Vijay for a bit of clarity] Teams can get started even faster by using new online document structures, or modules, for requirement organization and structure. What’s New? Lifecycle Integration Adapters Allow teams to connect various diverse tools to Rational capabilities to they can fill in gaps in their continuous delivery capabilities and unify across the tools. Last Fall we announced the Standard Edition for connecting CLM and CQ to HP ALM, Atlassian JIRA, and open source Git: allows teams to draw ALM data across tools by improving dashboard capabilities using open social gadgets that expose 3rd party and Rational data. Reporting capabilities are also improved by providing impact analysis through suspect links. We have worked with Tasktop (OEM agreement) to add another Edition for connecting Rational Team Concert to HP ALM and Quality Center, Atlassian JIRA, Microsoft Team Foundation Server and open source Bugzilla Teams can preserve customizations of their current tools, including specialized reporting and workflows, as they integrate across various roles and their respective tools. Uses additional integration methods that supplement OSLC to support alternative use cases and workflow environments in a way that minimizes the impact integration may have for customers in these situations. This NEW release adds adapters for: synchronizing requirements data across Rational Requirements Composer and HP Quality Center – which we mentioned on the last slide. Connecting Rational Team Concert to CA Clarity that allows project and portfolio managers to better collaborate with developers Environment/platform support has been updated for Microsoft Team Foundation Server Target Market/Industries: Size: Any size business and any size team. Roles: Developers, Project and Product Managers, Test Teams, Agile Teams and Scrum Masters, IT Managers What is New News? JazzHub was Beta in the Spring and was not on SoftLayer. This Fall it has moved to SoftLayer platform – secure, reliable and scalable AND is not longer Beta but an IDE on the Cloud. Currently available at no charge as they add capabilities based on customer input and feedback. Starting in 2014, there most likely be a monthly charge for JazzHub.
