Increasingly, organizations are turning to the WSO2 Mobile Services Gateway solution, which builds on the award-winning WSO2 Carbon middleware platform, to securely integrate mobile application functionality into their core business services (http://wso2.com/solutions/enterprise-integration/mobile-services-gateway?062911m).
