6 Reasonsto leverage an HTML5 platform and MBaaS for enterprise mobile apps

Keep it simple

#1 Simplicity

Create native-quality, cross-platform apps from single code-base using existing development resources.

Kinvey’s Data Link architecture mobilizes your existing data sources with minimal impact for IT.

26

#2 Time to market

Leverage .NET skills (C# or VB.Net), visual designers and RAD toolset to build sophisticated business apps quickly.

Lets app developers focus on app development – leverage full spectrum of back-end functions out of the box.

#3 Scalability

Highly efficient server-centric architecture able to serve high number of concurrent users on single server. Seamlessly scale to multiple servers or cloud.

Built for consumer-grade and web-scale apps, Kinvey’s platform is responsive for high numbers of concurrent requests. Scale in your infrastructure or ours.

#4 Security

Create “secure-by-design” apps based on empty-client paradigm. Integrate with enterprise access control systems.

Leverage existing user management and out-of-the-box data encryption to protect your app on any platform.

#5 Provide the flexibility to implement in cloud or on premise

Use Kinvey’s public cloud infrastructure, or deploy your dedicated Kinvey service on your own private cloud.

Deploy your app in the cloud (Azure, AWS, etc…) or host in your data center

#6 Any Device

One application with adaptive UI for any mobile, tablet, or desktop web browser

One backend for any mobile, tablet or web platform
