  • The Future of HTTP Debugging

    The vast majority of web, desktop, and mobile apps built today utilize remote services and/or data stores accessed via HTTP/S protocols. In some fortunate cases, these remote APIs are rock solid, meaning the API is perfectly documented and communication to/from the endpoint works as expected and without fail. But that’s not a reality most app developers live in.

    As the world moves towards more complex app development needs, APIs maintain a similar pace. APIs become simultaneously more powerful and more complex, inviting numerous opportunities for failures. Therefore, the need to both inspect and debug these APIs will only increase over time. To accomplish this, there are few tools in the market today that are more used and more established than Progress Telerik Fiddler.

    Striking the Development Standardization Balance: Key Considerations

    In any organization with ambitions of growth, standardization is non-negotiable. Well implemented standards allow you to do everything in less time. That extra time is what you reinvest into growth activities.

    Still, standardizing removes decisions from the individual and puts them in the hands of the organization, which can be harmful to employee creativity and self-drive. In situations where individual judgement creates inefficiencies and mistakes, standardization is a life-saver. In situations that require individual judgment, this is an impediment. Recognizing the difference is important, but hard.

    Get this whitepaper for guidance on standardization strategy from software consultant Erik Dietrich and learn:

    • How the advantages and disadvantages of standardization can impact your organization’s productivity
    • What you can standardize on, when and to what extent when it comes to hardware, programming language & environment, developer tools, proprietary source code and collaboration processes
    • How to build a business case for standardization at your organization
