Open Development Platforms Offers Options

Edited By Amy Tierney on February 18, 2010

It's great to see how companies are embracing new technology. Many are finding innovative ways to stay on top of the various technological changes. And one popular method is to establish an open development platform.   Open networks, for example, give network operators a way to help customers access content from multiple devices across any network. For developers, it lets them be more productive and lessens the learning curve when migrating to new technology.   Verizon Wireless is one good example of how a company boosts its business with an open development initiative. It first kicked off the effort within 2008 with Intertek, a company that specializes in wireless, telecommunications and mobile application testing.   The Open Development program lets customers use any device and application on Verizon Wireless' national voice and data network after they have met relevant specifications and certification.
