The EU Data Act became applicable on September 12, 2025, establishing requirements for applications that generate or process data from connected devices and digital services. App developers serving users in the European Union must implement these requirements to maintain legal compliance and European market access.

It’s a situation many tech leaders eventually encounter: a business-critical application is running, but the source code is either missing, broken beyond comprehension, or too outdated to be useful. You’re left with an interface that works, but a backend that no one fully understands. No documentation. No clean code. No clear path forward.

What if you could still rebuild the entire application, its interface, functionality, and structure using nothing more than a screenshot or a screen recording?

Deciding whether to build custom software or buy an off-the-shelf solution is a crucial decision that can impact your company’s growth, efficiency, and competitiveness. 

For businesses operating at a particular scale or launching from scratch, this decision goes beyond price - it’s about control, customization, and making sure the software can handle complexity as the company scales.

Speed, scale and seamless customer experience - these are no longer nice-to-haves in e-commerce, but they are business-essentials. Traditional monolithic architectures often struggle to meet the rising demands which leads to slow development cycles and difficulties in managing peak traffic. Microservices architecture provides a solution by breaking down large and complex applications into smaller and independently deployable services. 

According to a report by IMARC, the global microservices architecture market was valued at USD 4.2 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach USD 13.1 billion by 2033, growing at a CAGR of 12.7% from 2025 to 2033.

For tech leaders, building an MVP (Minimum Viable Product) isn’t just about getting a product to market quickly - it is about laying a foundation that can earn investor confidence. In the early stages of a product’s life, the MVP serves as both, a proof of concept and a strategic asset. It is the version of your product that must validate your assumptions, solve a real problem for a defined audience and demonstrate clear potential to scale.

A website’s search visibility, scalability and speed can make or break a business. A slow website drives visitors away, limited scalability restricts growth and poor SEO keeps you hidden from potential customers. Businesses need a web solution that delivers speed, flexibility and seamless user experiences - all without compromise.

APIs - Application Programming Interfaces have always been the backbone of modern software. They are the bridges that let apps communicate with each other which makes everything from mobile payments to social media integrations possible. Over the years, APIs have evolved from simple REST designs to more flexible models like GraphQL. But as our need for instant communication and scalability grows, a new player has taken the spotlight: Event-driven APIs.

Did you know that every successful software has one thing in common? It’s the architecture pattern that underpins its ability to communicate seamlessly, handle heavy loads, scale effortlessly, and ensure uninterrupted uptime.

The enhancement in Natural Language Processing (NLP) has enabled artificial intelligence (AI) systems or Agentic AI to transform industries at scale. These AI agents can lead context-aware interactions and can handle more sophisticated queries, making them easily adaptable. 

In the space of software development, maintaining clear, up-to-date, and interactive documentation is highly important. This is where application programming interfaces (APIs) play a crucial role.
