Abstract
Staying competitive in today's application economy is all
about speed. But speed without quality is a losing battle.
Developer solutions must simplify the complexity of
creating a great UX by providing mobile security,
interactivity and backend integration with developer-
friendly interfaces and APIs. During this session, Scott
Morrison, Distinguished Engineer, CA Technologies, and
Leif Bildoy, Sr. Product Manager, CA Technologies, will
walk through a common set of mobile app services,
exposed as SDKs and open APIs, to make it simpler to
create mobile apps that keep people coming back.

App Development Challenges
Getting more complex…
Traditional app
 Target audience
(B2E vs B2B vs B2C)
 Platform fragmentation
 Externalizing enterprise data
Modern app
 Multi-device universe extended
into IoT
 Collaboration
 Reactiveness
 UX spans every touch point

Enforce
Business policies using
reactive rule sets
As simple as writing a
spreadsheet.
Up to 40x less code
Create
Instant generation of
RESTful APIs from a broad
range of data sources
10x faster than writing
code
Integrate
Data from both SQL and
NoSQL data sources
Use JavaScript to
simplify integration and
add business logic
Introducing: CA Live API Creator
Rapid creation of Enterprise-class, Data APIs

24. 24 © 2015 CA. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.@CAWORLD #CAWORLD
Benefits of Automated API Creation Compared to Manual
 Accelerate application development with 10X quicker time-to-market
through point-and-click API creation
 Represent application logic using 40X more concise rule definition
 Increase quality and reduce fragility of hand-coded logic
 Weave security into the application with fine-grained access control over
databases, tables, rows, columns, fields and operations
 Prepare for big data exposure, API monetization or microservices
architecture scenarios
