Oracle Autonomous Mobile Cloud Enterprise: Deliver Mobile Apps faster using inbuilt features
Valuable features include: * Built-in platform APIs for configuring push notifications. * APIs to generate custom analytics events. * Connectors that can be used to connect to various enterprise backends and third-party systems. Now they have rolled out Oracle Autonomous Mobile Cloud Enterprise which also helps us to develop chatbots. We have implemented Facebook Channel enabled Chatbots using AMCe that allows to interact with Oracle EBS modules like HRMS. Here user can interact with chatbots to get the details about approved leaves, available leaves & also have the provision to apply leave. For one of our major clients, we wrote custom APIs in Oracle Autonomous Mobile Cloud to convert SOAP APIs to REST APIs. We were also able to integrate SSO functionality in their mobile application using Virtual Zero Footprint SSO. Oracle Autonomous Mobile Cloud has a built in token exchange endpoint that allows to generate SSO tokens using third party JWT or SAML tokens. We have also implemented Browser Based SSO in some of our client mobile applications.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We feel like, as an internet company, we try to achieve 99.99% availability of our website for all users, and since we get fewer bounces in the system, it does provide reliability and availability for the website."
"Oracle MCS is more than just a Mobile Backend as a Service (MBaaS) solution."
"Oracle MAF allows deployment of a mobile app to both Android and iOS, with one code base and one programming language, which actually simplifies development and makes it pretty easy for a developer to build an app from scratch."
"Since Oracle MAF consumes REST WebServices, it was pretty fast to build, deploy and consume our existing Oracle ADF applications based on ADF-BC into our native mobile app based on the hybrid model."
"The Task Flow feature provides us with structure and navigation between AMX pages, both bounded and unbounded."
"Deployment to multiple platforms with single codebase Oracle support access."
"The hybrid framework and drag/drop features are the most valuable."
"Oracle Autonomous Mobile Cloud Service helps us to deliver the application much more quickly, as it comes with built-in platform APIs for storage, push notifications, analytics, etc."
"For me, PhoneGap happens to be quite useful as I can share my existing code (javascript code) on different platforms, and I therefore do not have to do the same thing on different platforms."
"The product makes it easy to start developing cross-platform HTML5-based applications for iPhone, Android and Windows Phone based devices."
 

Cons

"The performance of animations could be faster. Also, the applications archive is quite big and could be better."
"The license is not suitable for small to mid-level clients. I consider the license prices too expensive and Oracle MAF does not offer something new that other free frameworks offer."
"It is true that we are not as happy as we would like in terms of syncing."
"At the time we got it, the product was not very mature, but in the newer versions the framework has become much more mature/stable."
"There are some stability issues with the framework, some bugs can cause the mobile application to crash, and there are other visual bugs as well."
"It needs more native capabilities built into the platform, and alert messages without the need for plugins."
"One of the key areas in which MCS needs improvement is documentation. New features, like Zero Footprint SSO, need better documentation with detailed integration steps."
"There has always been a debate on the pricing of the product. People tend to finding it expensive."
"Because it's a generic platform, it doesn't fully leverage all the subtleties of some of the platforms it runs on."
"Performance is not good, especially if the application is loaded with graphics."
