1 Communication Technology Peer Group BLACKBERRY 10: ASKED AND ANSWERED

2 WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW Blackberry 10:

3 IN THIS PRESENTATION Assume BlackBerry 10 Device is connected to a BlackBerry Enterprise Server 10 BlackBerry Enterprise Server Suite is the RTM version Only discussing BlackBerry Enterprise Server 10, not Universal Device Service (iOS and Android Management)

4 DEVICES AND OS Blackberry 10:

5 DEVICES BlackBerry Z10 (Currently Available) BlackBerry Q10 (Available Soon)

6 BLACKBERRY BALANCE Enabled when device is registered with a BlackBerry Enterprise Server Defines the “Work” and “Personal” Perimeters Enterprise (“Work”) information is separated from “Personal” information BES10 Policies allow for restriction of cross-perimeter communications like: Unable to copy & paste from “Work” to “Personal” Require “Work” Browser when opening links from “Work” Mail Account Allow moving data from “Personal” to “Work,” but not vice-versa Certain Native “Apps” can see across the perimeters: BlackBerry Hub (Messaging) Calendar (Multiple Calendar Viewing) Contacts (Consolidated Contact Management)

7 BLACKBERRY HUB The BlackBerry Hub handles all of your messaging and there is no longer a “Mail” Application. The BlackBerry Hub is: Always Running Allows for “Peek” with gesture Integrates all services (Corporate mail, personal mail, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Calls, Visual Voice Mail, etc.) into a single view If Balance is enabled and the “Work” perimeter locked, you will still see other messages and a note that the “Work” space is locked. Allows you to glance at the calendar by pulling down on the Hub Messages

9 SERVER ROLES BlackBerry Enterprise Server 10 RTM release consists of: BlackBerry Device Service 6.x (Re-branded as BES10) Supports BlackBerry Z10, Q10, and PlayBook devices BlackBerry Universal Device Service Supports Android and iOS Devices BlackBerry Management Studio (formerly Mobile Fusion) Front-end management solution for all BlackBerry Domains Supports multiple instances of Legacy BES, BES10, and UDS No BES 10 Role has native High Availability

10 MOBILE DATA SERVICE Mobile Data Service is the key service on the server. The BlackBerry MDS Connection Service pushes IT administration commands to activated devices The BlackBerry MDS Connection Service pushes notifications to internal applications that are already installed on activated devices The BlackBerry MDS Connection Service pushes internal applications to activated devices A BlackBerry device user browses to work resources (for example, your organization's intranet) using HTTP or HTTPS An internal application on the device needs to access work resources on your organization's network A user sends or receives email messages, calendar entries, or organizer data for the user's work email account using Microsoft ActiveSync -Feature & Technical Overview for BlackBerry Device Service 6.2

11 LESSONS LEARNED Blackberry 10:

12 HIGH AVAILABILITY Legacy BES Multiple servers to handle a single BlackBerry “Instance.” (bound to a single SRP) Service separation (placing critical services on one server and non-critical services on another) BES 10 RTM: BES 10 RTM does not have native high availability This can be mitigated by creating independent Instances locally or across data centers There is no automatic failover, so manual intervention is required

13 SERVICE SEPARATION Legacy BES: BlackBerry Router BlackBerry Admin Console BlackBerry Web Desktop BlackBerry “Core” (Sync Service, Dispatcher, etc.) BlackBerry Mobile Data Service BlackBerry Attachment Service BES10: BlackBerry Router BlackBerry Admin Console BlackBerry Web Desktop BlackBerry “Core”

16 RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE FIELD BlackBerry Admin Services: Install the BlackBerry Admin Services on separate servers than the critical Core Services If you plan on going single server, plan the additional memory constraint into your build Microsoft SQL Server Use SQL Server 2012 and create your database in an Availability Group to allow for SQL Server failure Training Have the end users watch the online videos (available on the device under “Setup,” “Learn How”) Consider including a “Quick Reference Guide” with new devices
