Today, many cell phone and tablet manufacturers are following IBM and Apple into the enterprise space. Google has created an initiative to support enterprise Android app development. The Android platform has been well-received by businesses as a counter-weight to relying on Apple. Companies are actively evaluating both platforms to optimize their operations, from task and personnel management and activity processing in native applications.

Since the Android platform is built to be open, but is tailored to each hardware manufacturer, the consistency of the user experience and reliability of the mobile app remain significant concerns. The security between the native application and its local database is also a key concern among businesses and secure healthcare apps.  Enterprise developers can use content provider application programming interfaces (APIs) to help address these issues. An enterprise can provide their own mail server, calendar, and document-viewing applications and enable data-sharing between each other privately.

Samsung is seeking to meet the security concerns with hardware that aligns with US defense policies. Samsung has contributed KNOX for Android’s newest project, Android Work, embodied in their newest phone version, Android L. Android L will incorporate Google’s Material Design to create a smoother transition between management of personal and business data. Hiroshi Lockheimer, VP of Engineering at Android states that “we are bringing enterprise-grade security and management capabilities to all manufacturers participating in the Android ecosystem.”

The Java language is used with the Eclipse integrated development environment (IDE) for application development of the Android platform and offers support for compiling code written in C or C++. Google provides the Android Developer Tools (ADT) plugin for the standard Eclipse IDE to support capabilities like graphical layout definition, debugging, memory analysis, performance profiling, and OpenGL Embedded Systems (ES) tracing.

Understanding of your business requirements before translating them to the mobile enterprise environment is imperative to the success of your Android application.
