Computers and internet have become important for our lives
. We cannot even think of working without them. Two very important aspects of a computer are hardware and software; both of them cannot do anything without each other. The storage devices and display devices are hardware. Computer instructions or data or anything which can be electronically stored is known as software.
Software can be described as the non-tangible aspect of a computer which is necessary to perform any function. Computer is a hardware which reads the software. Generally, software is the information which is stored in some kind of medium. Software comes in the form of programs. These programs instruct the computer what functions it has to perform. Software includes the program that instructs the computer what it has to do. Both hardware and software are so closely linked that it is difficult to distinguish between them.
Now the question arises, what is software development? Software development can be described as a process of developing software through phases in an orderly manner. This process includes writing of codes or program, preparation of requirements and objectives, design of what is to be coded and to see and check whether it has been able to meet the requirement.
There are many companies in India which are engaged in the business of software development. Software development depends on the needs and requirements of various companies. The software development companies through their expertise and knowledge must first find out the business goals of their customers, and then properly select the appropriate technology. The next step is to design solutions which cater to the needs of the customer. These software development companies must be dedicated and try to provide superior quality and cost effective solutions to their clients. These services provided by the companies help other companies and businesses to increase their product development cycles and reduce the load of marketing.
Software development is of great importance. Software development itself is a great industry which provides employment to many people. The companies in this business provide help and support to other businesses. They help in accelerating business and solve many problems relating to marketing and publicity.
