In the modern day, it can often feel like the world never stops moving. No matter the subject, trends are always in flux, whether they are leaping forward into new, innovative spaces, or taking inspiration from the past to create something unique and valuable in the present.Â
While it may not be the first subject that comes to mind when thinking about what is in style, software development is certainly an industry that follows trends, with particular innovations or developments in the sector leading to the entire industry moving in a certain direction.Â
Read on to find out more about software development trends in 2022, and how they may impact you.Â
Robust software Quality ControlÂ
The fact that software now permeates so many areas of our lives means that when innovations do come along, they are often resounding in their impact, and are adopted and built upon just as fast as they were discovered in the first place.
Furthermore, the more that software is developed on, the more capability there is for the software to be taken even further, leading to an exponential cycle of improvement – meaning that things move fast.Â
With demands for quality and effective software at all-time highs, it should be no surprise that to protect both businesses and consumers, robust software quality control measures are being floated that would ensure the standard and safety of all software is completely up to scratch.Â
Through the use of quality control certifications, businesses and consumers can have peace of mind that if the software is certified, they are guaranteed certain protections, or at least that the software is reliable and effective.Â
In turn, software developers could earn a better reputation within the industry for being known to only release certified software.
Cloud computing innovations
One of the most exciting spaces within the software development sector is cloud computing. Cloud computing offers the potential to revolutionize the way that businesses and the general public interact with their computers and their files, providing unprecedented security and accessibility.Â
While the majority of people are aware of the benefits that come with cloud storage (including a safe and secure backup to their files in case of an emergency), many are completely unaware of the true power of cloud computing for businesses. If an employee were to learn Ruby, for example, it would offer them huge flexibility and problem-solving power across the business.Â
Focus on securityÂ
Connectivity is a given for most people in 2022, and this connectivity allows for conversations around subjects to happen all the time, from all corners of the globe. Enthusiasts and professionals from all walks of life are constantly contributing their energy and ideas to a never-ending list of hobbies, interests, and crafts. As a result, there is a constant flow of information and data flying through the internet and the use of websites has become second nature, leading to people becoming careless with their online safety.Â
In an environment where cyberattacks have become more frequent, it’s more important than ever for software developers to maintain a focus on security. There are always malign actors looking to exploit security and gain access to valuable digital assets and files, and therefore a game of cat and mouse is always in motion to stay one step ahead of the other.Â
