Data flow: Accessing an application or content server from a 
BlackBerry 10
 device

This data flow describes how data travels when a work app on a 
BlackBerry 10
 device accesses an application or content server in your organization when 
BlackBerry Secure Connect Plus
 is not enabled.

  1. The user opens a work app to view work data. For example, the user opens the work browser to navigate the intranet or uses 
    BlackBerry Work Drives
     to access a file on a network drive. 
  2. The app establishes a connection to the application or content server to retrieve the data. The request travels through the 
    BlackBerry Infrastructure
    BlackBerry Affinity Manager
    BlackBerry Dispatcher
    , and 
    BlackBerry MDS Connection Service
     to the application or content server. 
  3. The application or content server replies with the work data. The work data travels through the 
    BlackBerry MDS Connection Service
    BlackBerry Dispatcher
    BlackBerry Affinity Manager
    , and 
    BlackBerry Infrastructure
     to device.
  4. The app receives and displays the data on the device.
