1. A project plan outlines recommended approaches to the use of the network, database management system, software, and cloud service technologies. Because industry best practices dictate transparency in terms of selection criteria and their importance to a specific project, a project plan draft should also include the criteria by which the recommended approaches were selected, along with the benefits to the project that each is expected to deliver.

   For this assignment, you will draft a project plan for the project proposal you outlined in Week 1 (and that you updated earlier this week based on instructor feedback).

   Download the Project Plan Draft.

   • Network technology recommendation(s)
   • Database management system recommendation(s)

Among one of many reasons to target the Android platform, first and foremost is cost. On average you can get an Android smartphone for a fraction of the cost of an iPhone. They may not have commensurate features, but thrift is a major component for new smartphone buyers. Next is flexibility.    Developers can often find on cheap and imported Android devices a version of Google Play that is maintained by the manufacturer.  Developers should develop as if they expect their app to be available to all Android devices.

• 1. Besides cost, why should mobile app developers target the Android platform?
• 2. Why is Android competition to itself?
• 3. Describe key ingredients needed to create mobile applications on the iOS platform.
