Here we share what works — in platforms, processes, and products. For anyone who not only wants to use technology, but also wants to understand it.
SDK stands for Software Development Kit. Online the abbreviation also turns up for a German health insurer, but in software development SDK always means a package of tools, libraries and documentation for a particular platform. It lets you build apps faster, because standard functions such as login or payment ship ready-made.
Embedded software is control code that runs directly on a hardware system, without a generic operating system in between. In 2026 embedded software has become a compliance topic, because the Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) starts to bite from September 2026 with its first reporting duties — including for Swiss manufacturers active on the EU market.
Business Process Management (BPM) is the structured control of business processes through modeling, automation, measurement and optimization. The EU rules DORA and NIS2 reach Swiss companies too, by way of their supply chains.
Software deployment is the process that moves finished code out of the development environment and into live production. GitOps, Progressive Delivery and DevSecOps make releases faster and safer. At the same time, the revDSG and even EU regulations reach into Swiss pipelines.
White label software refers to fully developed software that you license, brand and sell to end customers under your own brand name, without programming it yourself. For SMEs and agencies, this model can be a fast route to market.
Many teams experience Sprint Planning in one of two extreme ways: either as an endless meeting that drags on for three hours and still provides no clarity, or merely as a ticket-shuffling exercise in Jira that could just as easily have been handled via email. Neither of these approaches aligns with the true purpose of Sprint Planning.
By the end of 2025, almost half of all code on GitHub was generated using AI tools, according to EY Switzerland. Each month, 43 million pull requests were merged, a 23% year-over-year increase (Source: EY Switzerland). Gartner predicts that by 2030, AI-native development platforms will lead to 80% of organizations transforming large developer teams into smaller, AI-augmented units (Source: Gartner). Software development is changing faster than ever before. We highlight the trends that truly matter in 2026, what's driving them, and what this specifically means for businesses.
Just two years ago, building a first functional software prototype took several weeks: setting up the development environment, cobbling together a backend, building a frontend, wiring it all together. Today it takes a few hours and a clear prompt. AI Prototyping has fundamentally changed the process.
