on 11 May 2021 11:18 PM

The year 2020 will remain in our memory for all the damage caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, for the loss of human lives, and for the profound impact it had on the global economy. 
However, technological advancement continues, and more companies require a digital presence.
And within the technological advancement, we must be at the forefront of new trends for software development and implementation of new technologies that can take our projects to the next level.
Here are some noteworthy trends for this 2021.

Artificial Intelligence
A topic that years ago could only be seen as a product of a science fiction movie, is now a reality, which is getting closer and closer, since, thanks to the pandemic, the value of Artificial Intelligence was discovered. 
The growth of Artificial Intelligence technologies is on the rise and due to the technological progress, it is expected that from this year onwards it will develop at a dizzying rate, becoming necessary for the industry.

Machine Learning 
Machine learning has been gradually making its way forward, and its presence is gaining more and more weight, with everyday examples such as chatbots that are implemented on websites, social networks and applications. These offer the user immediate attention, at any time, gaining popularity in small and large companies. One of the leaps made by chatbots today is to be driven by Artificial Intelligence (AI).

Serverless architecture
Serverless architecture allows writing code for applications without having to manage, scale or maintain clandestine infrastructures. Where cloud services are fully managed, servers do not have to be provisioned to run applications.
In the area of billing, they have the advantage for the user of the pay-as-you-go billing method.

Languages
There are a wide variety of languages, some more popular, others specific, or more widely used, and we now present one that is gaining popularity this season.

Scala
This language stands out for combining functional and object-oriented programming. It can create high-performance systems that have simple access to large library ecosystems. The point at which it got the most web searches was between 2018 and 2019, despite being released in 2003.
Some of Scala's advantages are:
● It is a statically typed language.
● At the end of statements, it does not require semicolons. 
● It is much faster compared to programming languages such as Python.
● It has compatibility with Java

Innovation does not stop. We are sure that new trends will come out soon, and we must be alert to identify them and consider them for those projects that might need them. Success goes along with constant improvement.
