Application development encompasses the full cycle involved in planning and building an application, from inception to maintaining the released application.
The application development methodology can be used for:
New application development
Existing application enhancement
Application consolidation
Application migration
Applications can be classified by the size of the target audience, for example:
Desktop - 1 user
Workgroup - 2-99 users
Department - 100-999 users
Division - 1,000-9,999 users
Enterprise - 10,000+ users
Web applications may have hundreds of, thousands of users and so, from a design and engineering perspective, are usually treated as enterprise applications. In these definitions the number of users associated with each size is somewhat arbitrary, because the complexity of the application also has a bearing on its classification. The reason we mention these classifications is that each significant increase in target audience size also increases the challenges that must be overcome when building the application. For example, simply having a second user introduces the problem of having one user overwrite changes made by another.
When we start to develop applications we need to pay attention to a variety of interesting issues, such as scalability, reliability and availability.
Scalability is the capability of software to adapt to increases in its target audience with no changes in code.
Reliability in this context relates to atomic operations (transactions) that can be rolled back to the original state if any failure occurs during the transaction process.
Availability is the ability of the software to keep running under adverse conditions.
