2. In past years, cloud computing has integrated in almost every
facet of Information industry. Whether it is sales, marketing,
finance and support – all of these industries are taking
advantage of this huge platform and planning to re-engineer
their applications to take advantage of cloud's instant
access. It is just because the cloud has been providing
multiple tools for the development of better solutions and
constantly transforming the way applications are designed,
tested and deployed, resulting in a significant shift in
application development priorities. However to utilize this
technology, cost is a major driver because it delivers agility,
flexibility and speed to deploy new enterprise applications
and there are many firm which estimates that 90% of large
enterprises and government agencies will use many aspects
of cloud computing in 2015.
3. Over the past decade, the cloud has provided a number of solutions and tools for
businesses that drive IT and help businesses develop complex and advanced
applications. However in spite of this transformation, there has been little disruption to
the integrated development environment (IDE) world. Today the world's with more than
15 million developers, teams and organizations continue to use desktop IDEs as their
workbench of choice.
We will discuss in this post that Why hasn’t the development environment moved to the
cloud along with just about every other application?
4. What's Wrong With Desktop Development?
With the changing technology, desktop development environments have become
outdated. It is just because desktop development has been failing more often and
producing productivity issues for developers.
Complicated configuration management: The significant configuration
management development for a developer's workspace makes developers part-
time system administrators for which they need to be responsible for their own mini-
data center which runs completely on the desktop. This process consumes time, and
is error prone and challenging to automate.
.
5. Decreased productivity: There are many integrated development environments
(IDEs) that have memory and disk hogs, with significant boot times. It is just because
they are resource-hungry they can starve other applications, such as the Web
browser. The net effect is a less productive developer due to a slower machine.
Limited accessibility: Another issue is limited accessibility for developers as they
cannot access their workspaces via mobile devices. In case, when developers
require remote access, they have to resort to complex and slow solutions to get
connected such as GotoMyPC.
Poor collaboration: With desktop development, developers need to face poor
collaboration. Today when developers requires working with different teams, it is
critical to have an efficient collaboration system for the developers. However with
desktop IDEs, developers are being forced to communicate with their team via
other means.

6. The Solution: Cloud Development
The recent advancements in technology has brought significant solutions to solve
these problems; and the solution is to move the entire development workspace into
the cloud. The developer's environment is a combination of the IDE, the local build
system, the local runtime (to test and debug the locally edited code), the
connections between these components and the their dependencies with tools
such as Continuous Integration or central services such as Web Services, specialized
data stores, legacy applications or partner-provided services.
The cloud-based workspace is efficient and centralized that make it easy to share
for developers. They can invite other team members to their workspace to
collaborate with them. Cloud provides workspace for developers where they can
communicate with one another in the workspace itself. Moreover the benefits of
cloud computing are already clear and proved by several developers and
organizations.
