Cloud has changed application development, deployment

  1. In many parts of business, the cloud has changed everything. Applications, for example, have evolved significantly in merely a few years. Traditional models of software deployment suddenly seem slow and costly for everyone involved. Application development teams can build powerful new tools with a fraction of the on-site resources, then distribute and update their creations internally or externally, all in far less time than it would have taken even a few years ago. Ask anyone with a background in the industry, and they'll tell you just how great the differences are.

    Dev details
    CITE World contributor Simon Bisson decided to make an clear demonstration of how differently apps work now in comparison to a decade back. He focused on Web applications, using his own experience in the field to measure its progress. He immediately noted the way the cloud has changed things and explained how unnecessary the classic process of provisioning resources seems now.

    Previously, users had to pay for a huge amount of processing power. Bisson explained that these workers would need a place for their development environment, which meant hardware with a significant physical presence. With the options for scalability the cloud has made possible, there is no longer any need for such a robust physical infrastructure. When resources are available on-demand, that negates any danger of having too little space to test an app or of paying for too much infrastructure in the long haul.

    The next step
    It may be time for an even greater cloud commitment, as far as application developers are concerned. According to Computer Weekly contributor Adrian Bridgewater, the balance of resources needed to create software may be on the verge of moving to the cloud. While there has been great progress made in combining hosted architecture and on-site tools, it its exciting to consider that the bulk of software may rely on the affordable platform of the cloud.

    DevOps may be the methodology that empowers this next stage of cloud deployment. Bridgewater explained that throughout the IT field, companies have begun to publicly embrace that movement when it comes to the cloud, deciding that the continuous updating of software is a worthy benefit to chase.

    What does it mean for you?
    If your company is holding fast to legacy application development and deployment methods, it may be time to take another look at the cloud. The tech area is broad and accommodates many different strategies, and it has evolved significantly over the past few years. Even if the fit wasn't right before, things may have changed.
