The software development life cycle (SDLC) started to become a formalized process for software development in the 1960s. That’s pretty much when software systems started to exist. With its loosely defined development phases, the SDLC has become a software development term that gets a lot of people talking. The SDLC, however, is more of an acronym packed with meaning than a specification or framework for software development.
As a typical Internet user, nothing is more frustrating than waiting for a web page to display, only to receive a “Page Not Found” 404 error status code. Sure, we try reloading the page, and sometimes that gets the gremlins to start working, but most times, the issue is out of our hands.

The Java Virtual Machine (JVM) dynamically manages memory for your applications, ensuring that you don’t need to manually allocate and release memory in your code. But anyone who’s ever encountered a java.lang.OutOfMemoryError exception knows that this process can be imperfect—your application could require more memory than the JVM is able to allocate.
Have you ever been frustrated that your warnings and opinions on technical debt are going unheard?

WSUS (Windows Server Update Service) is an add-on provided by Microsoft for patching Windows applications. Along with being free, the basic functionalities that WSUS provides makes it an easy choice for major SMBs. However, in reality, WSUS falls short in a number of ways; because of this, many teams that rely on WSUS for their patching needs end up investing in additional tools that usually come at an additional cost.
AWS introduced the Serverless Application Model (SAM) to ease the building of serverless applications on AWS.

In this article, we’re going to share five tips to get the most out of AWS SAM templates. So, without further ado, let’s dive right in.
I’ve spent a lot of time with the development community over the years but every time I get to talk to people in the serverless community I’m constantly surprised by the passion and the general excitement over this technology. Below is one of the latest of said topics and I wanted to share it with you.
Managing an application’s performance, and specifically keeping it in good condition, is one of the hardest challenges in software development. That’s true for virtually any programming language and platform. Java is no exception to this rule. But beyond that, Java also presents some unique challenges of its own.
