I unintentionally watched all three hours of this video series in one sitting. The presenter hooked me and before I knew it, it was three hours later. It is a very fast paced tour of the security issues that can arise when using the Android platform. The tour is built around the Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) top 10 Mobile Security Risks as a guideline.

Strategies for App Development Success | @CloudExpo [#Cloud #API]
The process of getting a successful mobile application deployed can be complex and daunting. Architecting, designing and developing natural user interfaces for touch and gesture on mobile devices is not the same as web and desktop UI design and development.

IT’s Third Platform By @PlexxiInc [#SDN #BigData]
With the blurring of technology lines, the rise of competitive companies, and a shift in buying models all before us, it would appear we are at the cusp of ushering in the next era in IT—the Third Platform Era. But as with the other transitions, it is not the technology or the vendors that trigger a change in buying patterns. There must be fundamental shifts in buying behavior driven by business objectives.
The IT industry at large is in the midst of a massive rewrite of key business applications in response to two technology trends: the proliferation of data (read: Big Data) and the need for additional performance and scale. In many regards, the first begets the second. As data becomes more available—via traditional datacenters, and both public and private cloud environments—applications look to use that data, which means the applications themselves have to go through an evolution to account for the scale and performance required.
