(TendersInfo (India) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) Businesses continue to move from simple email configuration on wireless devices to strong application and content delivery to boost end-user efficiency in the mobile-cloud era.

VMware and SAP are enhancing their ties to help simplify mobile app delivery through the consolidation of mobile place from the SAP Mobile Secure portfolio, to meet user needs.



VMware, as the first partner to start to consolidate its solution with mobile place, will allow customers to take advantage of the AirWatch by VMware platform with SAP mobile apps built using SAP Mobile Platform, Executive vice president and general manager, End-User Computing, VMware, Sanjay Poonen, said : "By expanding our partnership with SAP, we are enabling customers to benefit from secure and more streamlined integration between SAP and our AirWatch solution suite to help accelerate mobility transformation." Kevin Ichhpurani, senior vice president and head of Corporate Business Development and Strategic Ecosystem, SAP, added : "Integrating mobile place with AirWatch by VMware makes the mobile application experience simpler and more secure for our customers regardless of the mobile device management (MDM) solution they may already have in place. This is intended to allow customers to leverage our mobile app and security portfolio, built on the SAP HANA platform, alongside mobile management and security solutions from VMware. The aim is to further drive the mobile-first business transformation in the industry." Silji Abraham, chief information officer of Sigma Aldrich, said : "As a customer of both SAP and VMware, including AirWatch, we are delighted to see both companies working together to facilitate deeper integration for the benefit of the customer. Our vision at Sigma Aldrich is to create a rich mobile experience on top of SAP applications, secured and managed on devices and tablets by AirWatch and VMware. This brings a combination of mobile apps from SAP with mobile security from VMware in a way that allows us to innovate faster for our business needs." (c) 2014 Euclid Infotech Pvt. Ltd.
