EVENT DETAILS |
Join IBM Developer for a hands-on IBM Cloud Functions & IBM Cloud App ID workshop. You will learn how to use IBM Cloud Functions along with Cognitive & Data services to build a serverless backend for a mobile application. IBM Cloud App ID allows you to easily add authentication to web & mobile apps with zero code changes & no redeploy required.
Not all mobile developers have experience managing server-side logic, or a server to start with. They would prefer to focus their efforts on the app they are building. Now what if they could reuse their existing development skills to write their mobile backend?
IBM Cloud Functions is a serverless event-driven platform. As highlighted in this workshop, the actions you deploy can easily be turned into HTTP endpoints as web actions to build a web application backend API. A web application being a client to the REST API, it is easy to take this example a step further & apply the same approach to build a backend for a mobile app. And with Cloud Functions, mobile developers can write the actions in the same language used for their mobile app, Java for Android, & Swift for iOS.
With IBM Cloud App ID, you no longer have to worry about setting up infrastructure for identity, ensuring geo-availability, & confirming compliance regulations. Instead, enhance your apps with advanced security capabilities, such as multifactor authentication (MFA), single sign-on (SSO) & user-defined password policies. You can also use App ID's scalable user registry to let users manage their own accounts.
IBM Cloud App ID is Payment Card Industry (PCI), Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act (HIPAA), General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) & Service Organization Control (SOC2) compliant. In this workshop, you will learn how to use IBM Cloud Functions & cognitive & data services to build a serverless backend for a mobile application.
