Each company chooses its way and pace of development. Someone uses DevOps outsourcing services to organize the team’s work; someone copes with self-management.

There is an ongoing trend of software outsourcing around the world. Some people think it is beneficial while others think of it as an expensive and complex process of development. Offshore Software development was offered as a solution to the costly in-house development but now as this traditional form of outsourcing is beginning to become a problem for some businesses, a new solution is invented - offshore development centers.

A stack trace (or traceback) is an output that shows the method stack of your application. You’ll typically see one on your terminal when your application encounters an error. As the name suggests, a stack data structure stores the methods in a stack trace. The method where program execution begins is at the bottom of the stack while the one that produces the stack trace is at the top. Original Source Continue reading →

Python and Rust occupy seemingly opposite ends of the language spectrum. Python, interpreted at runtime, offers developers a flexible and comfortable programming environment, but at the cost of raw speed. Rust provides the speed, plus guarantees of memory safety, but requires that you learn a new paradigm for handling memory operations. In theory, these languages shouldn't compete; they should cooperate. And in practice, they can. Rust can benefit from Python's ease of use, and Python can benefit from Rust's speed and safety. If you want to use Rust with Python, or Python with Rust, you'll need to have at least passing familiarity with both languages to get the best results. You'll also need to decide which of the two is your primary language, as the options for each approach are significantly different. Original Source Continue reading →

The use of DevSecOps practices is growing, as it is increasingly seen as the best way to produce high-quality and secure code. More than one-third (36%) of respondents to GitLab’s 2021 Global DevSecOps Survey reported developing software using DevSecOps, up from 27% in 2020. This growth is driven by organisations realising that application quality and security are essential to their ability to streamline continuous integration and delivery (CI/CD) and accelerate innovation. They need to balance pressure to develop software rapidly with the need to ensure it remains secure and is optimised for today’s cloud environments. This can be quite a challenge. GitLab’s Fifth Annual Global DevSecOps Survey (2020) found 60% of developers are releasing code twice as fast by using DevOps. However, speed often comes at the expense of security. A survey of CISO leaders last year found that 71% of CISOs admit they are not fully confident code is free of vulnerabilities before going ... Continue reading →

Companies now have a bewildering volume and variety of business applications—800+ for mid-sizes, for example. And while lots of people like to point to that as an example of how SaaS is out of control, that’s not really the issue. It’s that today, most of these applications are managed by non-developers.  By developer, I don’t mean people who can code. It’s a subtle nuance, but I believe you don’t have to code to be a developer. It’s more about thinking like an engineer. And when a business’ CRM, HCM, ERP, LMS, MAP, and dozens or hundreds of acronymized third-party applications are modified, constructed, and managed by folks who aren’t trained to think like developers, they pursue short-term results that build toward a long-term disaster.  In this article, I’ll explain why I think 2022 is the year for those companies to catch up, and start training and promoting business application no-code developers.  Without ...

The tools that you pick for debugging are very important because they are the ones that will determine how easily you can fix the issues in your code and install it in your web application. Your capabilities to debug the code also determine the quality of your web app. But due to the lack of reliable debugging tools, developers have to adapt some hacks.  For example, whenever you are debugging your website or a web app, you just have to rebuild the issues in the desktop and then use the chrome developer tools and other similar toolkits for debugging. But as a result, this hack did not prove to be as effective as needed and it also consumed so much time of the developer as he/she needed to continuously move back and forth from a desktop browser or other devices.  But things are different now and the process of hiring highly-skilled offshore software development companies is also not easy. If you want to do it all by yourself, then so many powerful sets of tools are ... Continue reading →

NoOps (no operations) is the concept that an IT environment can be automated and abstracted enough from the underlying infrastructure that there is no requirement for a dedicated team to manage its software in-house. In 2019, global consultancy Deloitte listed NoOps among its tech trends to watch out for, declaring it the “next state in the evolution of cloud computing” which “automates key tasks, allowing IT talent to shift focus from operations to outcomes.” The simplest analysis tends to project that jobs for software developers will decrease with more automation, but the likelihood of that outcome is very low. For most software developers, the ongoing shift to higher levels of abstraction is great news–more time spent delivering customer value and less time dealing with manual tasks. More importantly, as any engineering leader will tell you, there is always far more work to be done than their teams can ever support. Spending less time on ... Continue reading →
