 Thanks to the recent explosion in the development of mobile applications, consumers and enterprise customers have an extremely high demand for productivity apps. They are seeking an attractive user experience tailored to their devices and business needs. To meet the increasing expectations of this growing market, mobile app developers must build quickly and also be creative and innovative to stay competitive.

The  is quickly becoming an increasing key factor for mobile startups and traditional firms. Currently, mobile app developers build individual custom backend API solutions to support each of their mobile app projects. The DUBTEL Cloud API provides developers with a single, cost effective API solution for developing on all mobile platforms and projects.

DUBTEL Cloud API exposes a REST interface that is used by several major Cloud Mobile API Services today. Due to its lightweight design, REST Services provide faster data access methods over other technologies. Ebay and Amazon both use REST API Services to support their mobile applications.  Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Google and Flickr all use REST services.

Single sign-on solutions created for the web are too heavyweight for mobile devices, but their underlying policies and infrastructure are available in the DUBTEL Cloud API. DUBTEL supports OAuth, the security protocol of choice in the mobile world.  OAuth bridges the gap between the integration and security needs of mobile devices and existing proven enterprise services and policies.

Companies are using the DUBTEL Cloud API at the core of their API management solution for secure mobile app integration with their enterprise systems. Our API will power your mobile apps with suitable security, reliability and performance.

The widespread adoption of APIs have brought untold benefits to developers. The more that developers use APIs for common functions, the less they need to cobble together inelegant solutions to common problems. From sharing data to social networking devices to accessing public databases, APIs can help you accomplish common tasks much more easily than you could accomplish them previously.

Interacting With Cloud Services
Implementing cloud-based APIs is the easiest way to interact with cloud services. With an API, you can securely and quickly send data directly to a server without making your user log in to another website and post data in multiple places. It’s no wonder that mobile apps are using third-party APIs to post user data to
Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, and other popular platforms.

If your app has any cloud-based services whatsoever, you need to have a solid API to send the data to your (or others’) servers.

Increased Use of APIs
As Wayne Gretzky said (and Steve Jobs repeated), skate to where the puck is going — not to where it is. Right now, the mobile world is moving in the direction of increased API usage, ease-of-use, and intuitiveness. There has never been a better time to implement cloud APIs, such as DUBTEL’s cloud framework, into your app.

According to Rackspace, 60% of all eBay listings come from the eBay API. 50% of interactions with Salesforce come from the Salesforce API. Just a decade ago, nearly 100% of eBay’s interactions came from logging on to eBay.com and adding data that way. Thanks to the increased proliferation of mobile devices and third-party apps, however, the API model is taking off.

Using strong APIs will make your app faster, more secure, and more intuitive. Don’t get left behind as more of your users expect seamless cloud services from their apps.

DUBTEL isn’t just convenient and easy to use — it will save you time and money month after month. By cutting development costs and time spent on developing your mobile app by 50%, with these savings you can get your creative energy flowing like never before.

Cut Development Costs by 50%

Creating and maintaining a complete cloud API to support a single mobile application is extremely expensive. From technology licensing costs to the costs of recruiting good talent to develop and maintain the library, these costs and resources are better spent elsewhere. When you integrate DUBTEL’s cloud framework into your app, you’ll cut your development costs by 50%.

What would you do with a budget 2x the size of your current one?

Cut Development Time by 50%

When you use DUBTEL’s cloud APIs, you’ll cut development time by 50%, as well. That’s because when you develop a cloud-based app, at least half of the work involved is in communicating with your backend. If you try to develop and maintain your own APIs, you’ll just be spinning your wheels. Not only is there an inherent time cost in managing your own backend APIs, but there is also an additive cost in terms of bugs introduced to your system. Let’s face it: you’re not a Cloud API expert, you just want to develop your mobile app and get it in front of your users. Let us get all the kinks out of our cloud APIs so you can fix the bugs in your app instead.

Stay Creative

What happens when you cut development time and cost by 50%? You’re able to stay ahead of the competition. When you no longer have to worry about cloud frameworks and developing your own API library for your backend, you can focus on what you’re awesome at: developing your app and continuing to innovate. Why spend time and resources reinventing the wheel? Use DUBTEL’s cloud APIs to free your hands of tedious busywork and focus on your core competences. You may just be surprised at how much creative energy is freed up when you aren’t trying to manage your own cloud API framework.

The state of cloud hosting and backend frameworks has never been more exciting. As developers create apps that push the limits of backend hosting and users expect their data to be accessible anywhere, it has never been more important to have a strong backend framework.

Users Expect Perfection

Thanks to services such as Dropbox and iCloud, users are less forgiving than ever before when it comes to access to their data. Your backend framework needs to be robust enough to avoid any data loss, security holes, or other common issues with backend frameworks.

Users don’t care that your API is still being fleshed out for bugs. All they care about is that their data is being stored securely and is accessible anywhere. That’s where our backend APIs come in. Our API library is mature and in active development.

Moving Toward Convenience

A growing trend not just in API frameworks, but also in programming languages in general is a movement toward convenient and easy-to-learn syntax. If you have to learn obscure API calls and unnatural hacks around a poorly-developed API, then you may as well build your own backend framework. We’ve worked hard to make our API library as intuitive as possible. Because the API calls are intuitive and easy-to-learn, you’ll be able to swiftly integrate our framework into your app so you can get right back to developing your own app.

The state of backend frameworks is exciting and moving quickly. We can’t wait to see what innovations and trends are yet to come.

Our backend API library is mature and rich, but there are still areas in which it can be better. One major benefit of DUBTEL is that the framework is in active development. We’re constantly adding new API calls to our framework, so you’ll be able to do even more with our tools.

Three areas of our framework we’re working hard on include analytics, in-app purchases, and user management tools.

Deeper Analytics and Tracking

The more you know about how your users are using your app, the better. If you know where users encounter problems, how long they spend on each tab in your app, and even what time of day they use your app, you’ll be able to make design decision accordingly.

Similarly, if you can collect detailed demographic information about your users, you will be able to provide ads from more relevant ad networks, add useful features, or adjust the copywriting in the app.

We’re working on deeper analytics and demographic research tools that will let you collect information about your users so you can improve your app.

In-App Purchase Integration

App developers are making an increasingly large percentage of their revenue from in-app purchases. In-app purchases allow users to pick which features they are willing to pay for *a la carte*, and users are often more likely to spend money in an app than for an app itself.

Soon, DUBTEL will include in-app purchase APIs in its library. These APIs will enable you to collect funds from your users to unlock certain features.

More User Management and Controls

You can never have enough controls to customize user profiles. There are as many systems for managing user as there are apps. The DUBTEL framework will soon provide more customizable user profiles. By adding new API calls, you’ll be able to organize your users with even greater levels of precision.

We are excited to unveil these features to our developers in the coming months. We’ll keep you posted on our blog and mailing list, and we will add these APIs to our documentation page as soon as they’re ready.

You are a developer. You are not a system administrator, a database administrator or an architect, so stop trying to be one. DUBTEL provides a framework for the backend of your mobile app. Our APIs allow you to manage your users’ data quickly and easily, so you get the benefits of your own custom-built backend API without the hassle.

At DUBTEL we are continually updating and maintaining our backend API. Your own backend API, on the other hand, is likely to require regular maintenance from you or your employees.

And finally, with our easy-to-use, highly customizable backend API, you are able to spend time on what you enjoy most: building your app.

Security Benefits

When developing your own mobile backend API, you have a higher risk of leaving your users’ data vulnerable to potential liability issues. This is particularly true if the data is in any way sensitive or private. Our API allows you to strongly encrypt your users’ data, protecting both you and your users from malicious intruders.

Custom-Fit Backend Access

With our APIs, you can authorize your users, provide them with easy upload tools and track how they use your mobile apps. DUBTEL provides you with the tools you need to manage your mobile app’s Backend Storage, User Accounts and Analytics, but these tools are fungible enough to fit your mobile app’s unique requirements.
