Software 2020: nerds are the future – punt.avans

The greatest job on earth? Do something with it no matter how you look, what you wear and still have access to the hippest party? Living in luxury every day with pleasure. Well, there’s only one thing for you, a job as a software developer for nerds are hipper than hip. Sander Hoogendoorn argues keynote speaker at a symposium at Avans about the future of software.

Hoogendoorn right to speak. He’s been thirty years in the profession. Has has several books to his name and is considered an expert on particular software sites and asked if such as a speaker in India, Britain, Romania, Poland and so at last Friday at Avans in Breda.

Confrontation
The image of the quiet, shy man nerd is very misplaced in the case of Hoogendoorn. He talks a lot and quickly, using humor and does not avoid confrontation. Especially Java programming language and project leaders must pay for his college. “We must get rid of that software project planning. It just can not. This course is only fifty years old. You do not know how long something. Why make all those plans in advance if you already know that deadlines are not met? “

The future of software is as Hoogendoorn in the development of micro services. “Those old mainframes meet just not. They are not expensive to update and manage. “Commissioned by an insurer Hoogendoorn now micro services to develop to take over the dated software-heavy tasks in 2017. “Is it doable? I have no idea. “

Expand Further
‘Benefits of Micro services are legion. You can build much faster, you’re not dependent on a programming because the services can communicate with each other and you can always expand. “

Hoogendoorn called Gmail as a good example of software development. “It started as a software to send mails. That was in early enough. They’ve constantly updated, there are things added. But they have not waited for years and suddenly put a complete software package on the market.

Skateboard
In the future we will move toward building small programs immediately in management are taken. “Why would you build a whole car if you only need a skateboard? With software it is exactly so. If a program does what you want, you do not continue to build. “

One caveat Hoogendoorn put it in micro services. “It’s really still in a development phase. We do not really know yet how everything turns out. But this is the direction we want to go.
