appMobi Announces privateStack, Brings HTML5 app development Stack for Enterprises

appMobi, a leading company supporting mobile app development and deployment using HTML5, has announced the privateStack, a new HTML5 app development and cloud services stack for the enterprise market. appMobi has led the charge on HTML5 development tools and cloud services, but continued to hear from businesses, organizations and government agencies that they needed complete end-to-end control of mobile app deployments for security reasons. And that’s the reason that it has released prvateStack, so that it can respond well overwhelming interest from all of above.

With ever expanding mobile and tablet devices realm, enterprises are looking for ways to create hybrid and Web-based mobile apps, to serve their vast audience. But security is the prime concern, especially for CTOs, when it comes to mobile apps.

“While the consumer market for apps has skyrocketed along with explosive smartphone and tablet sales over the past few years, enterprises and government agencies who wanted to develop mobile apps with data security and deployment control have had no real way to do so,” said Dave Kennedy, appMobi CEO. “privateStack provides enterprises the mobile application management capabilities to develop and deploy apps using the same technology appMobi uses in its commercial cloud services. Ironically, privateStack illustrates how open Web technologies like HTML5 and the mobile Web can be used to create highly secure mobile solutions that can’t be duplicated in closed, vendor-owned mobile ecosystems such as those of Apple and Google.”

privateStack provides enterprises the mobile application management capabilities to develop and deploy apps using the same technology appMobi uses in its commercial cloud services, and gives CTOs the ability to support native-quality, HTML5-based, cross platform mobile apps with complete security controls. Ironically, privateStack illustrates how open technologies like HTML5 and the mobile Web can be used to create highly secure mobile solutions that can’t be duplicated in closed, vendor-owned mobile ecosystems such as those of Apple and Google, as it detailed out everything about how to create and deploy corporate apps.

From a product perspective, appMobi is offering its complete mobile development and cloud services stack to anyone who wants to have their own “private” ecosystem. There’s nothing else out there that is like it. We can do this because we’ve been cloud-based (with Amazon AWS) from inception. We can use Amazon AWS in our own private world, or if we need the ultimate in privacy, we can host it behind our corporate firewalls in your datacenter. Again, nobody else has this for mobile app deployment.

HTML5 is of growing interest to mobile developers, and in fact, the entire developer community. While appMobi is completely in favor of HTML5, and has been demonstrating a very solid uptake of HTML5 solutions (like the above one), we have Facebook on the flip side, where Mark Zuckerberg made a startling comment about the role of HTML5 in Facebook’s future at TechCrunch’s Disrupt 2012. He said that Facebook’s HTML5 Myopia was a big mistake, and blamed using HTML5 for their slow productivity.
