SAP has signed new agreements with Adobe, Appcelerator and Sencha to provide users with an open mobile apps development framework for developing on the company’s mobile platform.
The three partner agreements will allow SAP to help developers to build mobile apps based on their choice of client architectures, from native to hybrid Web container to mobile Web.
The products involved in the agreement are Adobe’s PhoneGap hybrid Web app runtime environment, Appcelerator’s Titanium development platform, and Sencha’s Touch HTML5 mobile application framework.
PhoneGap is a hybrid Web app runtime environment that allows developers to author native mobile applications with Web technologies such as HTML5.
Applications built with the hybrid Web app runtime environment have access to native device APIs and can be published across all major app stores.
Appcelerator’s Titanium is an Eclipse-based IDE, SDK and library of connectors used to build, test and deploy mobile, desktop and Web applications.
Titanium SDK enables the enterprise to deploy native, hybrid and mobile Web apps all from a single JavaScript code base while Titanium Studio provides a framework to develop improved application experiences, and connect those apps to SAP and 220 other data sources.
Sencha Touch is a HTML5 mobile application framework which is built for enabling improved user experiences.
Sencha Touch 2 is a HTML5 framework that enables developers to build apps that work on iOS, Android, Blackberry, Kindle Fire and more and it also includes built-in capabilities that make it easy to build applications that align with business architectures.
