Revolutionize Software Design
If you are involved in designing, coding, or managing software, you likely understand the long and difficult process required to create and update the many lines of code that make the software what end up being what users see and experience. Many times, when a team is working on software development, the result is that no one truly understands the entire code. Instead, one person may understand what they worked on, but not truly understand the overall code or how their section of code interacts with another person's section. The problem with this model is that it often makes the software very hard to understand, update and maintain. In addition to the complexity of understanding an entire code when you only worked on a small section, the different styles and habits of the individuals working on the large code can create inconsistencies in the code base, which can often cause problems when trying to push updates through. Another issue that developers often run into when creating large software is that the deployment timeline of the end product often gets extended due to the size of the project, causing missed deadlines and projects to run into each other. Often, a good solution to these problems facing project managers and developers is to break the code architecture into microservices.
