Apple WWDC 2014 feast for developers!



Phew..look at the list of technologies announced, enhanced messages, Handoff, SpriteKit, CloudKit, HomeKit, MetalKit,Swift (cross between Javascript, Python) and many more. This is the perfect time to jump and be a part of Apple family.

If you observe the trend in computing machines, hand held devices (x64 bit processor in palm) and servers (throw in 32 GB of RAM) are beefing up like crazy. The in betweeners MBP/Air are slowly decaying. How are the big players coping with this paradigm shift in hardware. Microsoft's answer ditch your PC, adopt Surface Pro. Apple's answer continuity. Its apps which are being shared across devices and the technology HandOff  if it really works that seamlessly it would be a game changer. 
 
Last year apple released the 64 bit processor for the iPad and iPhone this year iOS 8 is loaded with stuff which can truly bring value to the new Eco system. What really surprised was the new programming language Swift, Objective-C was defacto to Apple for three decades. I believe Swift has the potential to be what Java & .NET was for the enterprise. Overall, we barley touched the surface of mobile platform/computing, definitely headed in the ring direction.
