PCS Developers Attend CodeMash Software Development Conference

February 13, 2020 by Kevin Denee

Several Palitto Consulting Services team members attended CodeMash, a software development conference that took place between January 7th and 10th, 2020. Our team members regularly find time to attend events like this to help them learn and improve their skills. At PCS, we believe that continual improvement is the best way to ensure that we meet and exceed the needs of our clients today and tomorrow.

CodeMash

Team members Jay Holliday, Erinn Lynn and Chris Stevens went to CodeMash in early January 2020. This conference is a wide-ranging software development and technology event. It was the perfect gathering for learning about the latest trends and ideas in our field. Our three team members came back with several important takeaways:

  • WEB UI/UX & Frameworks: JavaScript has been dominant in this area for years. However, Blazor, an open-source framework being developed by Microsoft, is a noteworthy new competitor. It allows developers to easily use C# and HTML for web apps.
  • Mobile Development: Unsurprisingly, mobile is still hot on many people’s minds. Cross-compiling for iOS and Android is probably one of the most important current trends.
  • Cloud: Current-day cloud computing is significantly maturing. Whereas previously it was a bit of a novelty, more advanced functionality is moving to the cloud.
  • DevOps: A major focus in this area is on tools that can push out new code “automagically.”
  • Architecture: Two major themes in this area are test-driven development and dependency injection and decoupling.
  • Security: As more and more systems become interconnected, this is only growing in importance.
  • Document DBs: Expect to see more as this type of database grows in importance this year.

Our Dedication to Learning

We are firmly committed to continual learning. It is the most robust way for us to ensure the continued success of our clients. Conferences like CodeMash help us stay ahead of trends.

January 29, 2020January 29, 2020 by Kevin Denee
Autodesk University 2018

Team member, Chris Stevens, attended Autodesk University Las Vegas 2019, joining thousands of other professionals to learn of new and upcoming technologies in the design and engineering space.

SQL Saturday – The Latest on Microsoft’s SQL

November 14, 2019 by Kevin Denee
server-datacenter

On October 5th, 2019, our team member Jay Holiday attended SQL Saturday in Pittsburgh. This event, hosted at Pittsburgh Technical College, focused on the latest updates and information on Microsoft SQL Server.

As explained on the event’s website, the event sessions “offer content across data management, cloud and hybrid architecture, analytics, business intelligence, AI, and more.” This was a great chance to learn about innovations and best practices for this powerful data technology.

Data Is at the Center of Technology

Data technology plays an important role in just about every aspect of computing. Microsoft SQL Server is a relational database management system that is a popular and feature-rich way to handle the data needs of applications.

It is important to stay current on all the latest developments because innovations in data have far-reaching implications. The sessions at SQL Saturday included topics such as mapping data flows, using SQL Server and Azure, and ethics in data management.

Data and the Hybrid Cloud

Microsoft’s Azure product was a key focus of the event. The hybrid cloud, a combination of cloud and on-premise computing, is growing increasingly important to modern businesses. Azure, Microsoft’s cloud solution, is a popular choice for hybrid implementations.

Businesses need to be able to leverage the latest in both cloud computing and data to stay competitive. Several sessions at the event focused on Azure Data Factory, a data integration service. Jay learned a lot about the latest and greatest ideas in Microsoft SQL and Azure. We are excited to use this new insight to better serve our clients.

Staying up to date with the latest in technology is a high priority for us at Palitto Consulting Services. The technology world moves quickly, and innovations can represent major competitive advantages for the businesses we serve. Our emphasis on continual learning helps us bring the technology of large enterprises to the small- to mid-size companies we work with. Contact us to learn more about what we do and how we can help your business.
