Delayed deliveries are frowned upon, be it food, your online orders, or even software. While we may not be very helpful when it comes to food, we can help you in ensuring that your software development and deployment happens within the set timeline.

Nearing deadlines, manual testing, mounting error logs, continuous iterations, are the possibilities that the project nightmares are made of.

We have extracted 5 lessons from our own experiences and we swear by all the practices that are mentioned in this blog. These practical tips will surely shorten your SDLC.

Avoiding Technical Debt

Technical debt when left unchecked might drag you back to the square one. You need to come up with a regular maintenance schedule for keeping your technical debt at minimum levels.

And since this is a ‘debt’, at some point in time you will have to repay it. Therefore, pushing it in your backlog will not help.

In case it is a conscious decision of having some technical debt for any reason, make sure you document it for future reference and schedule a time to go back to it.

Migrate your Legacy Apps to Cloud

Yes, that’s right! The ancient code needs to migrate to the cloud. The process will also help you in simplifying your code as well before you commence this migration. You will be able to leverage serverless computing, microservices, and Docker containers technologies.

The majority of the time, your developers are not the ones who developed your legacy code, therefore updating it becomes a necessity. Automation is a concern with complex legacy codes, making it an absolute essential to migrate to the cloud ASAP.

The modern architectures support continuous integration and delivery, thereby, speeding up your development cycle.
