Gathering and analyzing requirements is one of
the critical initial stages in the software
development process. A well-defined problem
and clear requirements will go a long way to
creating an effective solution that adds value
to the business.
The two key players in this
requirements-gathering and analysis process
are the product owner and the business
analyst. But what, exactly, do these two roles
entail in the context of agile development?

In today’s business world, a software component is critical for any business looking to gain efficiencies. Software systems that automate back office processes — from customer relationship management to billing to reporting — empower businesses to leverage technology and free up their finite labor resources for other, high-order work. When it comes to software solutions, it can be quite difficult to decide whether to choose the flexibility of building your own software or the speed of buying a tried-and-tested third-party option off the shelf.
It is often hard for new entrepreneurs in the software sphere to understand what it takes to be in the same arena as large international players like Microsoft and Oracle. Nevertheless, multinational corporations were not built in one day; they all started somewhere. Knowing what you need to get started can make or break your start-up’s future as a successful business. After all, as Behance creator Scott Belsky says, “It’s not about ideas. It’s about making ideas happen. So what does an early stage start-up need to focus on to make those ideas happen?
When it comes to software development, selecting the right software model is just as critical as selecting the right vendor. Why is the model so important? A wise man once said that if you fail to plan, you plan to fail, and the Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) model is a critical component in planning a project.
Any project and its implementation are fraught
with a wide variety of risks, and we can’t
even predict all of them until we’re knee-deep
in the project. In a perfect world, we’d be
able to foresee and preemptively eliminate
each of these risks. Unfortunately, that’s
simply not possible, so the risk management
includes evaluating and managing these
obstacles as they arise. In software
development as in business, probable threats
can and should be managed.
At the moment, we’re more interested in what
risk management means for software
development.
