Coding languages and methodologies are evolving rapidly – applications and software are now expected to be more flexible, allowing for fuss-free modifications, layering and delayering. In addition, organisations are enhancing their partnerships with one another and these partnerships often take a digital form, requiring applications to be linked up across the organisation.
Developers are expected to understand the intricacies behind the increasing connectivity of different applications, in particular APIs. Connections in applications across unrelated organisations are far more complicated, and require deep consideration at development stages, in order to provide the agility needed as the partnerships deepen.
