Software development is constantly evolving, thanks to a variety of changes and improvements in the software development lifecycle (SDLC), such as
A technology that is prominent today may quickly become obsolete. If we look at the current software development process, many significant trends are changing how we develop, deploy, and manage software and the platforms to develop for. In this newsletter, let’s discuss some trends in software development that will have a high impact on the broad IT industry.
Shopping first went virtual in the 1990s. Rather than having to be physically present to purchase a product, we all became accustomed to browsing and buying entirely online.

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: video is revolutionizing business.
Video games have evolved a long way from the primitive and blocky sprites that many of us enjoyed in our youth, and today’s gamers are used to exploring realistic 3D worlds and interacting with hundreds or thousands of other players in real-time.
