Mobile Next? It isn’t just in mobile either. Chances are you can open up a Computerworld or CIO magazine and you will see all sorts of stories about creating a mobile strategy, a cloud strategy, networking/SDN Strategy (yes Software Defined Networks is the next “big thing” in networking) or most certainly a big data strategy.

Mobilizing the Enterprise. I spend a lot of time talking to people about the mobile enterprise. Sometimes it’s people I work with, or friends who work at other companies, over twitter, or just people who reach out to ask a question or two about mobilizing their company. There has to be a reason to go mobile.

Do You Need A Mobile Ecosystem? No matter what you read these days when it comes to mobility in the enterprise there always seems to be a section on building your mobile ecosystem. Part of this mobile strategy that you are told you have to build requires that you create a mobile ecosystem for your devices to play in.

I’ve had the chance to be on stage a couple of times in the last month and one of my favorite things to ask is how many people work at companies that have a policy for BYOD (Bring your own device). Whether it is allowed or not, almost every company has some form of BYOD going on, even when they have said no to it.

I have spent a lot of time talking about mobile strategy and thinking about whether you want a BYOD program and that it really isn’t about saving costs. When you set up a BYOD program, in most cases you don’t reimburse an employee for their mobile handset or tablet. They go buy the device and you enable it on your network.
