IBM Worklight Application Center Architecture

The architecture of Worklight
Application Center is shown in Figure and demonstrates the central role of an
application store. The application center offers three main services:
- An application catalog service to search for obtainable mobile applications
- An application installation service to install mobile applications
- An application feedback service to supply feedback on application versions
With an internal enterprise application
store (using the application catalog service and application install service),
internal users can view your catalog, download applications, track installed
applications, and provide feedback by rating the application versions. Allowing
an employee to manage the applications on a company-owned mobile device instead
of requiring direct IT support can
lessen IT support costs.
The application feedback service allow
users to rate an application and provide feedback about it. This helps you
monitor user acceptance and plan for new releases. For example, if one feature
receives constant positive feedback, you can move development resources to
improve other features that are not as extremely rated or get negative
feedback.
Through the development lifecycle,
Application Center can be used to streamline the movement of new application
versions from development to test, such as when you must release a new version
to an internal test audience. Granular contact controls allow you to offer
multiple versions of an application in the internal application store but to
limit access to specific versions to certain users or groups.
