Introduction to RhoMobile: Rhomobiles entire product suite, RhoMBUS, allows enterprises to easily develop, distribute, deploy, and manage

all enterprise apps and data. It includes Rhodes, RhoSync, RhoHub and RhoGallery. Rhomobile bases its products on the Ruby language and models its model -view-controller (MVC) framework on the popular Ruby on Rails approach to web application development. This framework is called Rhodes and allows Ruby developers to write cross platform mobile apps using web technologies like HTML, CSS & JavaScript. These are not web apps instead native apps. It is more suited for enterprise app development. The native app can be deployed across all major mobile OS iPhone Windows Mobile Android Symbian (no more supported) Blackberry Rhomobile allows you to access and edit your data regardless of connectivity with the optional RhoSync Rhomobile has combined Rhodes and RhoSync in a hosted offering called RhoHub. RhoHub.com is the worlds first development as a service. RhoHub offers development-on-demand with a web-based IDE, provisioning service and builds for multiple smartphone platforms. Rhomobile completes the enterprise mobility offering with RhoGallery - the Enterprise App Store. RhoGallery is the first hosted mobile app management solution. RhoGallery makes it easy to provision apps directly to your employees smartphones (regardless of the OS), and then easily manage and provision updates in the future. Licensing All Rhomobile products are available under the GPLv3, if you GPL your app pay Rhomobile nothing Commercial licenses are available for both Rhodes and RhoSync. Rhodes is $500 per app including updates for a year. RhoSync starts at $5,000(for 100 devices running concurrently) and scales up logarithmically (meaning that more users cost less per user) RhoHub is still in a free public beta. Advantages: Free (entire framework is open-source) Ability to deploy a single codebase on multiple platforms Compiles to truly native application, not HTML5 in a mobile browser Interfaces with device hardware such as camera, GPS, and accelerometer using Javascript Browser-based app construction using RhoHub Easy multi-device and cloud data syncing using RhoSync Ability to work offline
