Software Development: Keep it Simple for Better Results

Online, August 7, 2010 (Newswire.com) - Gone are the times when companies thought that complex software with too many features and control is better because it facilitates better management of resources and work. But the complex nature of the software came as a curse instead of a boon, things became more complex and difficult then being simple and easy. Hence in recent times it has been observed that software development is driving on the simple road.

"Previously we had clients who were requesting for software which can perform multiple tasks and had higher level of control. However in recent times our software development team is experiencing that more and more people are requesting for simple software that is easy to operate, maintain and handle. Though the software remains simple it obviously has high level controls" said Director, Software Development, Tatvasoft. He further added that "clients are much more satisfied with the simple software which is now much more organized".

Developing simple software is possible as most of the software development companies adopt SOA (services-oriented architecture) which is known to integrate systems of various types may be within the company or even outside. REST (Representational State Transfer) has made web services easy as it is able to overcome the limitations of SOAP limitations and wrappers.

The demand for making software development easier has seen an increase in recent times. Work in this direction has lead to the introduction of programming platforms like Java, Ruby, Rails, Zend, etc. Java immensely contributed to making software development simple and also provided better support for server side scripting languages. Different scripting languages and frameworks emerged since times have been known to add simplicity to the development process. Frameworks are known as the best friend of software developer as they help make their task much more easy, fast and yet quality driven.

Director, Software Development, Tatvasoft concluded by saying "increase in the introduction of different types of frameworks, scripting languages and many other software development methodologies is proof enough to ensure that software development is going simple."
