Software Development Trends
FacebookTweetPinLinkedInEmailPrint

Trends come and go all of the time, and the world of software development is no different. If anything, it progresses more rapidly than other industries, as technology advances with every day that passes by.

With that being said, below we take a look at the top five trends in software development at present…

1. Targeted content

There is only one place to begin, and this is with targeted content. Nowadays, the software will track the behavior of the user and note their preferences so that a targeted experience can be provided. This is especially the case on mobile platforms. Contrast this with the past and you see a startling difference, as before you merely downloaded a program and that was that. There was no personalization. This is a trend that does not only relate to software development; it represents a bigger cultural trend of personalization.

2. Big data

There is no denying that we live in an age of big data, and there are many different uses for this data. Leading on from the former point, data can be used for targeted purposes, from oil pipeline pressure to credit card fraud. Nevertheless, it can also enhance your business in the sense that it can reveal hidden patterns by working as a powerful analytics tool. The vast majority of software solutions today can be integrated with an analytics tool or come with inbuilt analytics tracking. However, this trend is only going to develop and become more advanced as the year goes on.

3. Outsourcing

The next trend on the list is outsourcing. Revision control systems and open-source code have opened the door for contractors and freelancers to contribute to software development projects with ease. Today, the vast majority of software development teams either use Git. or Apache Subversion like GitScrum. This is beneficial because it means a new user can start contributing straight away, as the administrator merely needs to grant them repository access.

4. Better revision control

The gap between distributed teams has been closed thanks to the rise of revision control systems that are available. These tools have transformed in recent years, boasting interfaces that are user-friendly and make it easy to comment on and review other people’s work.

5. Open-source

Last but not least, the reliance on open-source software is something that is very much worthy of a mention. Whether you realize it or not, everything from your mobile phone to your computer relies on some sort of open-source software. Most obvious examples include the likes of WordPress and free VPN services. Of course, this alone cannot be deemed a brand new trend, as it has been around for several years now. Nevertheless, what it has meant is that we are noticing that both professionals and amateurs can make software quicker.

So there you have it – five of the hottest software trends in the software development industry at present. There is certainly a lot to look forward to as further progressions are bound to be made in the sector.

    Hello, great article, I totally agree that IT outsourcing is flourishing. I live and work in Ukraine, just in a company that deals with outsourcing. Ukraine is a hot spot for hiring programmers and specialized teams. The country now has many advantages: location, low prices, visa, European mentality, good specialists. So if we talk about trends, it makes sense to be.
