- 22. Lessons Learned from a Customer Deployment
• Ensure the client understands how mobile fits into business process.
• In client’s case, they looked only at pieces and not the whole and the gaps only became
evident once they saw the pieces.
• Understand what you are and are not getting with each application.
• You really need to demo these apps to the customer and identify their limitations before
commencement of the project in order to manage expectations
• Understand the landscape and where you wish to host the UI and gateway
components because there are several options.
• If using a separate Gateway, realize that you need production users to exist in the
Gateway system also.
• Be on the very latest versions of components necessary for Fiori.
• How will users authenticate themselves?
• Most clients will have an enterprise authentication scheme, authentication piece was
more trouble than we anticipated.
• Decide on a strategy for making systems internet-accessible upfront.
• Will the DEV Fiori landscape be accessible to internet users concurrently with PRD Fiori?
• Client QA testing was done internally on iPads, using internal URL that bypassed external
authentication/external URLs.
