Get in the Mobile App Game with Oracle ADF
As of October 2013, there were over 1 million apps in the Apple
iTunes App Store–and over 60 billion downloads. As of the beginning of 2014,
there were almost 1.2 million apps in the Google Play Android app store, with
over 400,000 downloads.

Now while those download numbers don’t tell us how many of those
apps are actually used on a regular basis, they’re still impressive numbers.
Smartphone and tablet users are downloading apps on a frequent basis, and
they’re not just downloading games or entertainment apps. According to an ExactTarget survey, 6 in 10 users have downloaded a
business-specific app in the past 6 months. Read more about Custom
Application Development Services.
In fact, 85% of
those surveyed said that their mobile device is a central part of their
everyday lives. So why aren’t there more business apps out there?
Start developing your own business apps
Deciding to develop your own mobile app is a big one, however there
are so many benefits to doing it, that you may wonder why you didn’t start
earlier.
Faster information delivery: A mobile app that’s
integrated to all of your relevant data sources delivers the right information
to the right people at the right time. Sales staff on-site with a client can
pull up the latest charts to show product adoption numbers. Senior management
can view the latest version of their department’s reports while in a
high-priority meeting. IT support staff can input outage resolution information
as soon as they fix the problem, so everyone’s aware of what’s going on in
real-time.
Deliver your information anyway you like: Information is shared
through your app through any delivery method you like, including mobile, web
app, and desktop app.
Productivity soars: Your workforce will get more done throughout their work
day because they’ve got easier access to the latest information they need to do
their job. Your departments will complete more projects than they have before.
Bonus benefit: You may notice an increase in employee morale too.
Attrition decreases: In today’s mobile work environment, allowing
telecommuting and mobile working options is becoming more popular. Employees
have been known to change companies based on this fact alone. Offering a mobile
working option to your employees means they’re more likely to stick with you.
You’ve now differentiated your company from the rest of the market with this
customized solution.
The final
bonus, and perhaps the most important one for you, is that there’s already a
tool out there that will integrate easily and quickly into your Oracle-based
environment: Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF).
Why Oracle Application Development Framework (ADF)?
Oracle ADF
gives companies, especially those already using Oracle EBS, the opportunity to
develop their own apps faster, use the many built-in features to develop a
robust app, and protect their business from technology shifts, all the while
integrating tightly to existing solutions.

· Faster Development: Develop your mobile app faster using familiar Oracle technologies,
like Jdeveloper. ADF uses a rich client UI and component-based development
approach, which speeds up your development even more.
· Built-In Features: ADF includes many built-in features out-of-box, which again,
means you can develop your app with fewer delays, and a lower technology
investment.
· Protect from technology shifts: Oracle ADF mobile technology is
platform-independent, so you can develop apps for Android, iOS, and Windows
mobile operating systems. Let your employees choose the right app for their
mobile device.
· Tight integration with existing data: Whether you’re pulling
data from web services applications, databases, or other legacy systems, Oracle
ADF can handle it all.
· Granular security: Implement permission-based security in your business app that
lets you control access at a user, application, or enterprise role level. That
means that everyone from your end users to your app developers have access to
only the data and functionality they need, and nothing more.
· Quick deployment: Because you’re using a familiar technology, and haven’t had to
make new technology investments, your mobile app deployment time is low. Use
existing IT and human resources to deploy it quickly and easily.
