Appcelerator Xu Xian: A new generation of mobile internet technology

News and Information September 8-9th, China Software Developers Conference held in Beijing National Conference Center, this Conference invited a number of domestic IT technology leaders for software applications and development of hot topics such as in-depth discussion. News and science and technology to the General Assembly conducted a full report. Appcelerator Cloud computing platform technology director and China Regional President Xu Xian the keynote address.

Xu Xian says that there are now three very big directions in the IT industry, and many people have just talked about the cloud, which involves hardware and technology architecture. Many people think of social networking sites, which are more about the Internet and their social networking sites are in the ascendant.

Following is the Appcelerator cloud computing platform Technical director and China Regional President Xu Xian speech Record:

Xu Xian: Three days ago received a colleague Weibo forwarding, said that now a mobile phone calculation and 1969 NASA to send astronauts to the moon, the calculation is consistent ability, we now use this ability to catch a bird, this may be from a certain point of view of the calculation can be considered. Mobile phones have now developed to a very high level of intelligence, we, in addition to playing crazy birds on the phone, we as a developer, if we do not think of the enterprise or business on the mobile platform for the development of the overall technology, my next speech may help you a little bit.

We are not a start-up company that was founded yesterday, the company has been running a mobile development platform in the United States for more than 5 years, the earliest we tried to do some application development tools to transition to the current stage, we do not care whether the foreground development or the cloud computing platform in the construction of the backend server has gone through a mature and lengthy process. So far, we have 40,000 mobile apps in our Grand, and there are about 30 tens of thousands of developers in our own open source community who are on the technology exchange. In itself, our background has more than 50,000 applications, based on Amazon backend service providers. Like American television on our platform for the 2012 Olympic Games, so we are a mature technology, and the reason we are new to the next generation is that we have the idea to do something.

Now there are three very big directions in the IT industry, and many people have just talked about the cloud, and the cloud involves hardware and technology. Many people think of social networking sites, which are more about the Internet and their social networking sites are in the ascendant. The other is heterogeneous, how to combine these three hottest technologies together? I think we all agree that we have to do this through mobile apps. I would like to share with you about our company's recent discussions, we also see many people are talking about the Facebook stock market after falling to less than 18 yuan, we from a user to see, by July 2012, the Internet traffic is half on the mobile platform, if the normal flow of enterprise-level, About half of the flow through the mobile phone to achieve. You see Facebook being used as a backstage store for mobile phone traffic, we like to take photos and we do photographic applications, we like medical or other information, and we develop very small, particularly targeted mobile social platforms. So the biggest challenge for Facebook is to get the information that people are interacting with at the front desk to get to his platform. So we've seen three of the most important, social platforms, heterogeneous and cloud.

The main developers are here, how many people are familiar with Office7? Barely 1%,java? More than 50%, Javastrme? Maybe a little bit more, you know, from 2007, the first iphone appeared, to W7, W8, on the internet to the 2012 operating system war intensified, everyone in order to make their own platform to do the consolidation and in-depth use of different applications, Microsoft continues the. NET platform, and we see how challenging it is to develop a platform-wide application from a technical standpoint. After your application has been developed, you will find out how to make the application more challenging to update. When we talked to our clients, I found out that when I wanted to do a little iphone app, I would outsource it, and if I wanted to outsource to another one while I was trying to support Android, I would be able to take it on the cost, but how do I make a version update? I am facing a very complex project management situation. So I think with the further refinement of the hardware software, we see that the challenge is to increase. After so many years of technology accumulation, we can now do a few things on this platform, which helps the CTO to clarify some issues across platform developers.

We do three jobs on our platform, the first is to do a development tool, we use Java Script Program for iOS, for Android, for the iphone, for different platforms for development, logic is Java script, This is us and the competition for so many years back and forth the game got a clearer idea, we have development tools to support multi-platform development, we need a development of the main language, so as to ensure that the user's entire experience. In the development platform, in fact, we have done in the background cloud support, why do this? Because we developers in three years ago to do the iOS menu sharing, front-end two developers three months basically done, we want to design a background database, we need to communicate, need to have a family, needs to have a user, Facebook, Twitter background verification, these background work two people with five months time, What we really want to do is the foreground application. So when we have finished painfully, we found that many developers have the same pain, that is, I actually want to do in front of the application, but I have to put a lot of my energy and money used in the background of the building and services. So when we finish that, we say we do cloud work together, so what do I do? We have the database all designed, add sever on it, no matter what you are you just call my API, you do not have to consider a lot of work. The developers we have here have been doing repetitive development, everyone went to a place to find the exit, back to write code, so that we have an effective front-end development tools, with a post-Taiyun foundation, we developed a developer of the module store, in this module store you said I want to even an apple, I want to connect Twitter and Facebook, these interfaces are already standard, you just spend two dollars to bring the code to the line. Why our product has a certain vitality, we are let all the Java sprit people in this flat belt to develop a thing. This area involves not only operating system support, browser support, but even some hardware support. After that you will have to use the application Cross-platform, across the version, the overall direction of the development must be someone to win, itself we think the company's JavaScript will win. We have a very large development community, in North America, Europe, Japan, Taiwan, this development platform not only lets you do the foreground development, we also have the backstage service, only needs an API to connect to the cloud, we also look for some local cloud provider in the domestic, brought over our backstage solution to do the development. If you're interested, you can try our platform and you'll find that it blends the simplest things a developer wants. We have this. Because we use our front-end development tools, we have a few examples, PwC is Europe's largest consulting company, NBC is the television, Zipcar is the United States mobile car service, we cooperate with themFound in our appcelerator to do development, as by the sixth month we have done the fourth version of the listing development. PwC we do the eight, we should have experience, general development 3 months to half a year, if the six months of the word will not be online, in the cross-platform development of several now do.

Our internal structure, the left branch is a source code, you can choose what version to support, we 100 engineers to the different version of the bottom of the UI optimization, to show it to our level, so for a developer either know or not understand it does not matter, can be on our platform to find what you want.

If you are interested to be able to pay attention to our micro-blog content, but also hope that we can do in-depth exchanges, thank you.
