Apple, IBM Partnership Yields First Results: 10 Mobile Apps

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday December 10, 2014 @05:36PM from the big-blue-apple dept.

itwbennett writes IBM and Apple have unveiled the first results of the enterprise IT partnership they announced in July: 10 mobile applications aimed at businesses in six industries as well as government users. One of the apps, for example, allows a flight crew to personalize a passenger's in-flight experience. An app targeted at the banking industry allows a financial advisor to remotely access and manage a client's portfolio. And police officers can use iPhones to view video feeds from crime scenes with an app for law enforcement.
