Amazon Launches AWS Mobile Hub To Help Mobile Developers Build Back-End Processes

Amazon today announced the launch of its AWS Mobile Hub based on AWS Lambda based on its re: Invent developer conference,a new tool that makes it easier for mobile developers to build back-end process for their applications.

Amazon CTO Werner Vogels As noted during the keynote today, AWS has long offered developers all services to run a backend for mobile applications,but those are not always easy to use. "What we often see is that mobile developers are really good on the device, " he said. " They find that really hard things backend So we wondered. What can we do to make mobile development much simpler."

Instead of having to set up a number of different services, new mobile Hub will allow Android and iOS developers to choose and configure the services they need for their applications and Amazon will then run these features on Lambda. The options here include the ability to set up user logins,user data storage,analytical applications and other features.

In addition to helping developers set up their mobile backends, the service will also be easier for them to build,test, and monitor them, says Amazon. The company claims implementation this could take as little as 10 minutes.
