MobileFirst server-side API

Use the server-side API that IBM MobileFirst™ Platform Foundation defines to modify the behavior of the servers that your mobile applications rely on.

MobileFirst Server provides a set of mobile capabilities with the use of client/server integration and communication between mobile applications and back-end systems.

Adapter library

You can use the adapter library to connect to various back-end systems, such as web services, databases, and messaging applications. For example, IBM MobileFirst Platform Foundation provides adapters for SOAP or XML over HTTP, JDBC, and JMS. For more information about developing adapters, see Developing the server side of a MobileFirst application.

Security libraries

You can use the security libraries to develop security checks and adapters that use the security context. The libraries provide the required interfaces for adapters and security checks to gain access to the security context. For more information about the MobileFirst security framework, see MobileFirst security framework.
