Persistent Mobile Foundation on Cloud
Prerequisites
Persistent Mobile Foundation (PMF) on Cloud requires the following schema distribution:
- A single schema for the Admin Console, Push, Runtime, LiveUpdate, and AppCenter.
- Two schemas: One for the Admin Console, Push, Runtime, LiveUpdate components and the other for the AppCenter component.
Introduction
Persistent Mobile Foundation (PMF) v9.1 is now available to install and run on Red Hat® OpenShift® Version 4.15 or later.
Red Hat OpenShift is an enterprise Kubernetes platform designed to address the complex realities of container orchestration in production systems.
As enterprises continue to digitally transform their businesses, Platform as a Service (PaaS) application development environments, including container and microservices architectures, enable enterprises to focus more on creating and improving value-add application features and less on managing underlying operating systems and infrastructure. Red Hat OpenShift is designed to make this easier for Kubernetes environments through automated installation, patching, and upgrades for every layer of the container stack from the operating system through application services.
PMF offers an industry-leading secured platform for developers to rapidly build and deploy the next generation of multi channel digital apps, including mobile, wearables, conversation, web, and Progressive Web Apps (PWAs). Accelerate the development and deployment of powerful, engaging digital apps with:
- Containerized mobile back-end services for OpenShift Container Platform covering comprehensive security, application life cycle management, offline data sync, and back-end integration.
- Low-code studio to build digital apps and rich SDKs for widely used mobile frameworks (both native and hybrid).
- A private App Store to publish your apps for consumption by users.
- User engagement by means of analytics service for application insights, feedback using In-app feedback, Push notifications, Feature toggle and A/B testing.
