From idea to reality: the meaning of PoC in software development

Being optimistic about gaining support for an idea or project is not enough. Investors and stakeholders are typically pragmatic and require concrete evidence that business proposals can be viable and successful. This is where a proof of concept (PoC) comes in. A PoC demonstrates the core functionality or a key component of the planned software to demonstrate that it's feasible and likely to meet business goals. We’ve already thoroughly covered what a PoC is in one of our articles, but here we want to give a quick reminder.

Accelerating delivery: why CI/CD is important for your company

Every stage of the software development life cycle is important in its own way. However, we all know that it is when the code goes into a production environment that the price of an error becomes especially high. It doesn’t matter if it is the first release of your software or a new build with important updates, a serious bug can cost your company and your customers a lot of money. The solution for this might seem obvious: just carry out more thorough testing. But the longer you spend on testing, the more your customers will have to wait.

The importance and benefits of unit testing

Ensuring code quality and reliability is critical in the modern software development world. One of the possible solutions to achieving this goal is unit testing. Unit testing involves breaking down software into smaller components or units and subjecting them to rigorous testing. It helps identify bugs and errors early on and provides benefits that significantly enhance the development process. In this article, we delve into the importance of unit testing and explore its various benefits to developers and businesses.

Why service mesh matters: understanding the benefits of microservices networking

Building applications as distributed systems, especially with microservices architecture, is quickly becoming the new norm of software development. Microservices, when used in the right situation, can ensure that your application will be easy to scale, update, and fix. If you aim to create a cloud-native app, then microservices are typically your best choice. However, when you start looking into distributed applications, one potential problem stands out, and that is the issue of communication between the multiple services in your application.

iPerf testing — overview and basic use case

iPerf is a versatile and powerful tool that has become essential for network administrators and IT professionals alike. Designed to measure the performance and throughput of a network, iPerf provides valuable insights into network bandwidth capacity, latency, and packet loss. By simulating real-world traffic conditions, iPerf enables users to assess network performance, identify bottlenecks, and optimize their infrastructure. In this article, we explore how iPerf works and delve into a practical use case to understand its effectiveness in network diagnostics and optimization.

Communication in IT projects — practical tips and improvements based on real-life cases

In IT projects, sometimes the biggest challenge is not in the code. With a lot of professionals of different specialties and authority levels involved, the pressure to meet the client’s expectations, and limited time and resources, communication can easily become an issue. In this article, we want to share experiences working on a project with a client and the issues that we came across. See the improvements we made to make our communication more effective. At CodiLime, we have experience in various projects.

Understanding the Differences Between Proof of Concept vs. MVP

Once you have an idea for a product, you need to validate it. Proof of concept and MVP are well known ways to do that. They help you assess how you can develop the product, how it can be improved and whether it’s even worth your time and resources. However, MVPs and PoCs serve different purposes and are used in differing circumstances. Read the article to learn what they are exactly, the difference between them and when to use each of them. A proof of concept, or a PoC, is a way of validating a product’s feasibility.
