No company would never even consider revealing the one secret that separates them from the competition. In enterprise software development the one and only differentiator is your source code. The power and integrity of your code is a reflection of the insight and intelligence your development teams bring to the marketplace. It is from this which all value, that your company creates, flows.

Exposing your source code is more than just handing the competition the keys to your car, it is handing them the means by which you pay for your car.

The software development life cycle (SDLC) future is going to be dominated by highly flexible software packages that interact with each other and which can be mixed and matched to each users requirements. As projects become more complicated and require additional support and testing across multiple operating systems it is essential that your code is developed and tested on systems that are 100% platform independent.

This evening I had the pleasure to steal 30 of Mike Müller's precious minutes as he and his team put the finishing touches on preparations for EuroPython 2014. With 1200 attendees, a 35% jump since last year, Python continues to become ever more popular across Europe, and consequently organising the event demands an increasing amount of time from the extremely dedicated volunteer organisers.

When speaking with Mike his passion for Python keeps coming through, and since he discovered Python 1.5 in 1999 he hasn't looked back.

The software development life cycle (SDLC) future is going to be dominated by highly flexible software packages that interact with each other and which can be mixed and matched to each users requirements. Each part of the "software swarm" needs to be intelligent enough to make the right decision in the every situation based on feedback from peers. The only way to ensure that each decision making entity is always on key is to have the information flow work seamlessly across the full development cycle.

The software development life cycle (SDLC) within the agile environment requires the ability to iterate extremely quickly. Over the last few years, when large enterprises have switched to the "fail fast, fail often" approach, they have had to implement this dynamic development approach on top of tools designed and created during the age of "build it and they will come".
