What makes your phone your phone? Or, for that matter, making your desktop, laptop or tablet your ? . After all, millions of people have hardware / software configurations identical iPhones, Android-based phones, tablets, laptops and other devices
The answer lies in two critical aspects of each device: the data of user who is locally -stored, and information of the user customization.
But in the very near future, I expect that people will move equally among many other features, and will do so smoothly. They will rent, exchange, or even borrow them devices that become perhaps only for a few minutes or a few days before being reused and re-customized by others. These devices could even be unaffected, but can take the personalization features and access to data for each new user, these users will do it because the unit is fit for purpose, or just available at the time .
For example, have you ever forgotten your phone, but your wife has hers? It would not be great to borrow hers and have instant (but temporarily) take on your character and the contact list? Have you ever walk into a meeting and the battery of your laptop dies? The conference room has a shared computer. No problem - the PC will become "yours" for the next hour
You get the picture
It has already begun: .. Your Data Anywhere
Why would we want mobile data / personas?
looking at mobility from a data context, we are already seeing big changes with services such as iCloud, ShareFile, Amazon Cloud Drive, Google Drive and others. Wherever you are, whatever device you use, your data is instantly accessible. Gartner terms it your "personal cloud". We even see this metaphor matched with applications - for example with Xmarks on my FireFox browser, where everything FireFox I run on any device instantly brings down my whole stored bookmarks. My personal data store always follows me
Also this :. If you think content as another form of your personal data store, we also find your data served in a similar manner. personalized services such as Netflix, Hulu, Amazon, Pandora and others offer content - customized for you -. on any device you hold, even through a known custom device under the name of your living room TV network
Whether we realize it or not, the need for data stored locally is quickly avoided by service portability data online - all living in the Cloud
following :. Customizing Your Everywhere
As Gartner recently highlighted in the Data Center conference this month, the personal laptop is the "hub" of your business. On the contrary, all the devices that you own are peer effect. And very soon, all devices Pressing will be equal peers too
Here are some illustrations :.
- cell phone loss: lose your phone? Instantly recover your data, applications, personalization, ringtones, etc. This will not only be a service shop and more.
- missing cell phone? Just borrow a phone nearby and temporarily customize it
- work and personal phones? course. Combine your work profile and the number, the greater the personal profile and the available number from one device
- Moving your desk in your office for a tablet on the road No problem -.? Data, personality and session are mobile
- No laptop to a business meeting: No need to carry around physical hardware. Just reassign a device and on custom site - or borrow one from a friend
- Voyager but you want to watch your home TV or service No problem.?. Re-assign the media profile of a TV or a small screen to access your home or online content streaming profile
- In a rental car? Enter your personalization and the preset radio stations with favorite and audio and GPS streaming subscriptions will be loaded with your contacts / addresses
What will do all the work?
There are three industry trends I see the creation of this perfect environment for a world that uses non-dedicated devices
- portability data in the cloud - It is now an accepted practice that data can live in the cloud, securely accessible from anywhere. network advances continue to larger tubing, which increases the real-time access
- Mobile Personalization - More personal preferences, profiles and patterns of use are also stored in the cloud. And more devices make use of the flexible customization to fit the screen size, input devices, etc. (Gartner predicts that the Personal Cloud will be the center of our digital lives, for apps, content and preferences. - Allowing you to synchronize across devices services become more important, the devices become less important)
- technologies Workspace-as-a-Service workspaces -entire - not just applications - can now be delivered. as a service to any device. This includes the portability of the session, "showcases" simple for users to self-sufficiency, and the overall availability and content delivery systems. (Gartner predicts that by 2014, most organizations will offer mobile applications and workspaces to workers through private application stores.)
aside from custom fancy blankets and nametags, making your "own" devices really lives in the cloud - and there is no reason that the data will not follow you to almost any device you use, or press on
and then, perhaps the sense of ownership. - Or need to use "our own" device - will slowly disappear. Taking his place will be our willingness to use whatever device is in range.
