● Start by defining our major deployment modes, or solution sets.○ Based off use case, not

technical implementation.● Next categorize every enterprise

feature within Android and managed Google Play.● Grouped by type, e.g.

provisioning.

Solution sets and features

Proprietary + Confidential

Different features are possible with different solution sets.

● Mandatory features are all required to support a solution set.● Optional features are additional, non-MVP features that help EMMs differentiate.

Mandatory and optional features

Proprietary + Confidential

Each feature has discrete, concrete integration requirements.

● Requirements tell EMMs how to build features, to ensure they actually work for customers.● We validate each EMM feature integration by hand.

○ Integration must meet requirements and be “sufficiently usable” as determined by Google.● Requirements are updated every six months to include new features and APIs.

○ EMMs must re-validate with each new version of the requirements.
