A career in software development is a continuous process of learning and staying updated on the latest technology stack. While software developers are focussed on learning technologies that are trending among enterprises, but often they face the dilemma of selection as they are exposed to similar kinds of technologies, for instance, which language to learn or which database to use, or which server to select.
