To succeed today, businesses need fluid integration of mobile and cloud, partners and suppliers, developers and big data, and security and governance. Designing, building, and deploying such a fully integrated, next-gen infrastructure will be less complex if you follow some key principles: Don't create new data silos; consider cloud and mobile as just part of the stack. Remember: It's not "mobile business," it's just "business." Hew to the principle of "develop once and deploy many." That means investing in reusable components, such as HTML5 and responsive design, that ensure that new client devices and platforms don't send developers back to the drawing board. Bake in security that focuses on the data, not the device. Add automation and use DevOps principles to manage change.
