BREAKING NEWS: Tour de LiveCycle now available.
Getting the word out on what is LiveCycle ES has just been kicked into high gear! We just released the next generation of communication vehicles to introduce the world to Adobe’s enterprise software (aka the best kept secret :) )- LiveCycle ES. Based on the success of Tour de Flex, we decided to leverage its approach and architecture built on Adobe AIR to deliver over 1600 pages of rich content and samples.
For those of you wanting to know more about how LiveCycle ES provides value to your vertical, how LiveCycle ES can fit into your IT stack, or how to administer and build your own LiveCycle ES applications, Tour de LiveCycle is the perfect place to start. Tour de LiveCycle is less than 1.5 Megs. You can even fit it on a memory stick. Have you ever tried to explain to your neighbor or family member what LiveCycle ES is? Now you have a perfect solution!!!
In addition to providing all of this valuable content, Tour de LiveCycle also provides you with an impressive quick reference to all of the services, tools and APIs you need.
You can get Tour de LiveCycle here: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/livecycle/tourdelivecycle

The AIR rocket has launched
Adobe has finally released Flex 3 and AIR 1.0. This is a major milestone in the evolution of RIA and business applications as we know them. I'll be the first one to admit that I did not jump on the AIR bandwagon from the start. Obviously, my focus on enterprise level applications has blurred my vision. As time passed and I actually tried building a couple LiveCycle ES applications using AIR as the client, I quickly realized that my initial "poo poo" opinion of AIR was dramatically incorrect. AIR is going to revolutionize the way enterprise applications are built and distributed.
Take the time to check it out. The buzz is all around consumer type applications for now, but as more and more enterprise developers discover the power and flexibility or AIR; it will spread like wild-fire.

AIR provides new ways to do business
Regardless of the vertical that you are in, one of the most challenging obstacles to overcome is connecting mobile agents to back office processes. Once that agent leaves the connected world and begins his/her day interacting with customers, suppliers or citizens - something bad happens... All that investment in technology in the back office to increase efficiencies and save money falls apart.
Those field agents are collecting valuable information that needs to be processed as soon as possible - but how does that information make it back into the SAPs of the world? OK, maybe I am going a little over-board here... Many organizations have built custom solutions to bridge that gap or have found some specialized application that does most of what is required. Hmmm, how do we get this application installed on all of the mobile devices the field agents use? And what happens when Fred (good old Fred who built the custom application) leaves the company or gets a promotion? Who is going to maintain that app?
