How the rapid application development model helps boost your business growth

With rapid growth and teams starting to expand, businesses often see the need to improve and speed up software development processes. At some point, you need a solution that is cost-efficient, agile in nature, and low-to-no code because traditional development methodologies don’t cut it any longer. This is when rapid application development comes in. It focuses on developing rapidly through frequent iterations and continuous feedback. How to implement it properly? What are the advantages of such a methodology?

10 reasons why software projects fail

Software development serves as the foundation of technology adoption for various businesses. Especially in the last three years, with the pandemic, it has taken a front seat in most industries. However, do all software projects succeed? Of course not. However, there are a number of factors that can directly affect the chances of a project’s success. Failure can be attributed to various factors, including quality and scheduling issues. What else? Let’s dive deeper into it. If you are part of the IT industry, you have probably heard about many software project fail cases.

Best practices for a successful and secure software development life cycle (SDLC)

It’s not a secret that reaching any goal is easier when you have a clearly outlined plan. Knowing what exactly you are going to do and in what order gets you at least halfway on the road to success. This is especially true when it comes to such a complicated and multifaceted process as software development. If you strive to implement a workflow that is well-structured, iterative, and systematic, your web or mobile application development process becomes more efficient, transparent, and cost-effective.

Prototype vs. Final Product: key differences and similarities

Prototypes and final products hold distinct roles in the development process. In this article, we will delve into their differences, similarities, the dynamics between them, and the importance of incorporating a prototyping phase in your product’s development. Please keep in mind this article focuses on a product-centered approach. Prototype has a different meaning for backend development. Let’s start by understanding the concepts:A prototype is a preliminary version or early model of a product. In software development, a prototype is a digital simulation of an application or system, created to test the functionality, user experience, and to validate the design and interface.

The PoC concept for software testing automation

Introducing automation into any stage of the software development workflow has great potential. It can be exactly what your team needs to save a lot of time and effort, and, as a result, money. Test automation can arguably be especially beneficial, since covering all the test cases manually is non an optimal use of resources. But choosing the right automation tools for your software testing is not a quick and simple process. Testing tool evaluation without a PoC can take weeks and at the end you might still get a tool with certain limitations that won’t make it the right fit for your project.

Bazel build system: build containerized applications faster

For the last nine months, I’ve been working on a large migration of multiple interconnected software projects from the CMake to the Bazel build system. While doing so, I’ve learned about Bazel’s capability for building and publishing container images. Bazel is a multi-language build system with a strong focus on hermeticity, which means that when given the same source code, Bazel will produce the same build artifacts, even on different machines (if properly configured). This property allows you to set up a remote cache for the artifacts that you can share between your developers and continuous integration (CI) system to significantly speed up your workflow.

The importance of a secure software development life cycle (SSDLC)

In today’s world, where technology plays an important role in many aspects of our daily lives, the software we use must be both innovative and secure. Unfortunately, many companies still view security as an obstacle in the development process. However, insecure software poses a significant risk to businesses. Even the most innovative feature will not bring much value to the product or its user if it's vulnerable to hacking. The solution to this problem is adopting a secure software development life cycle (SSDLC), a comprehensive approach to software development that puts security first in the process.

A definitive guide to proof of concept vs. prototype in product development

Software development is one of the most competitive industries these days. Even if we look only at the applications, the numbers are staggering. There are tens of thousands of new apps released every month, and obviously, only a handful of them become successful. No matter how original the app concept might seem, a lot of considerations need to be taken into account before making the final decision to turn the concept into a working app. Both a proof of concept and a prototype are often mentioned among the most popular methods that help to determine if a product idea is viable and worth pursuing.

Software development life cycle with business intelligence — a brief guide

You might have heard of the term “software development life cycle” or “SDLC” many times in the tech world, but what does it actually mean? To put it simply, it’s the process of developing software from start to finish. This process is especially important in the realm of business intelligence (BI). To remain competitive in today's fast-changing business world, it is critical to embrace a data-driven approach that utilizes the potential of BI. In this article, we’ll take a closer look at how the SDLC process gains from the use of BI.

From idea to reality: the meaning of PoC in software development

Being optimistic about gaining support for an idea or project is not enough. Investors and stakeholders are typically pragmatic and require concrete evidence that business proposals can be viable and successful. This is where a proof of concept (PoC) comes in. A PoC demonstrates the core functionality or a key component of the planned software to demonstrate that it's feasible and likely to meet business goals. We’ve already thoroughly covered what a PoC is in one of our articles, but here we want to give a quick reminder.
