Cross-platform Mobility: The Rise of Mono in the Enterprise

The introduction of the iPhone, iPad, and Android has changed the mobile computing landscape, and the impact these devices are making on corporate IT is no less significant. The mobile revolution is all about the apps, and expectations of both device capabilities and user experience have profoundly changed. Consumer owned devices are entering the workplace at an unprecedented level, and rather than the IT department dictating device choice the average worker is driving adoption. This seismic shift in the power structure of enterprise IT is creating a huge demand for cross-platform development solutions. CEO's and CIO's across industries have made significant investments in C# and .NET technologies. Mono empowers them to bring these technologies to new platforms, and is poised to make a huge impact in the enterprise.
