What is a mobile ecosystem?
• Group of devices connected by one OS that work
together and share data
• Shared data are stored on the Cloud ie. Dropbox,
iCloud, Skydrive
• Begins with a starting point which can be a smartphone,
tablet, computer
• Can be as big or small as you want it to be depending
on how you use it
What does an ecosystem need?• Your mobile ecosystem needs two or more
devices:• Run on an OS• Web Connectivity • Personal Preference• Apple & Blackberry users are limited to only their
products• Google and Microsoft users are able to use different
devices from different vendors
• Android devices will be able to connect and
share data between almost all PC/Tablets
Why have an Ecosystem?
• To share info across different devices without the
need of cables and wires• Instant access of data from anywhere with any
connected device• Give the user a simple way of sharing and storing
data across different devices and platforms
What ecosystems are
currently available?
• Apple, Google, Microsoft, and Blackberry products are
all capable of forming an ecosystem
• Mobile ecosystems are expanding to the automotive
industry, television, tablets, and google glasses
How do I know which ecosystem I need?
• Your ecosystem is influenced by the operating system your device runs on
• The software will be the initial point of connections in starting your ecosystem• A device that runs on Android will be able to use
any other devices and products that run within the Android system
• However, Blackberry’s have their own hardware and run on a different OS, as a result, it is difficult to have an Android feature on a devices that runs on Blackberry
• That is why there are similar applications specifically made for a type of Operating System
How safe are mobile ecosystems?
• Just as secure as online banking
• Cloud storage on accounts require passwords
• Information saved is also encrypted
Apple’s iOS operating system• First manufacturer to offer the
complete ecosystem
• iOS extending across its tablets
Google’s Android operating system
