User experience design, often abbreviated as UX design, is the practice of designing digital experiences that are both functional and enjoyable for users. As the competition in the market increases, businesses need to keep up with customers' expectations. The importance of UX design can't be stressed enough.

If you want to design manageable and flexible web applications, you may want to take a look at React, Vue.js, and Angular frameworks. Before starting the comparison, let me briefly discuss these great frameworks.

We will outline a set of best practices that are essential for ensuring the security of your cloud-native applications while also helping you meet stringent regulatory requirements. Additionally, we'll provide insights into the evolving landscape of cloud-native application security and offer guidance on how you can proactively stay ahead of emerging threats and challenges.

Many universities have large IT infrastructure footprints on-premises running on VMware virtualization technology. It can be challenging for these institutions when it comes to creating a BCP in a cloud environment due to a limited budget or staff that’s already invested in learning and building in a VMware environment.

As businesses continue to migrate their applications and workloads to the cloud, security remains a top concern for cloud-native application development. In this blog, we will discuss the concept of cloud-native applications and why security is crucial in this space. We will also delve into the challenges that come with securing cloud-native applications and strategies you can adopt to enhance your application's security posture.

This year's Future Commencer Internship Program was a great success, with interns gaining valuable experience. 23 interns from different universities entered the world of tech by successfully completing our 6-week Future Commencer Internship Program, held from July 24th to September 1st.

In the vast universe of Android development, ensuring app security, especially for sensitive data, has always been a paramount concern.

In recent years, the realm of software development has undergone a significant transformation, embracing the microservices architecture. This approach involves breaking down large, monolithic applications into smaller, more manageable components.

Security is a non-functional feature that means securing users’ personal data and payment info from third-party users or ensuring specific people have related permission to do specific actions. Risky points that can cause personal data exposure are named vulnerabilities.

In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, businesses are increasingly migrating their workloads to the cloud to harness its scalability, flexibility, and cost-efficiency. However, this transition comes with its own set of challenges, as organizations need to ensure that their cloud architectures are robust, secure, and optimized for performance. This is where the concept of Well-Architected Reviews comes into play.

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, organizations increasingly leverage cloud computing to drive innovation, agility, and scalability. However, a single cloud platform may not always meet businesses' diverse needs. Enter multi-cloud, a strategy that combines multiple cloud providers' strengths to create a robust and flexible infrastructure.

In the ever-evolving world of software development, where time is of the essence and quality is paramount, finding efficient and effective testing techniques is crucial. By significantly reducing the number of test cases required, pairwise testing saves time, effort, and resources without compromising the thoroughness of the testing process.

The Future Commencer Internship Program, which lasted from July 25 to September 2, 2022, was full of learning experiences, hands-on experience, and drawing inspiration from other designers. The interns were hosted in the program's Istanbul office, where we met other interns and employees.

The role of a tester is not as simple as it may seem, and it varies depending on the industry, the organization, and the project context. The key to successful testing is to clearly define your role, negotiate and clarify your mission with your manager and other clients; prioritize your efforts according to the needs of multiple clients and based on the risks related to the product and the project; work closely with developers; strive to build good relationships with many clients; and report any issues that may negatively impact the value of the product.

This year's CloudCamp 2023, hosted by Commencis in partnership with Amazon Web Services (AWS), was a big success. 27 participants were selected for the 6-week online training program from among the applicants.

Agile testing is a software testing approach that follows the principles of agile software development. In agile testing, testing activities are integrated throughout the software development process, rather than being conducted at the end as a separate phase.This means that testing is done continuously and concurrently with other development activities, such as coding and design.

Moving to the cloud – to at least some degree – is essential to running a modern business. Given that fact, you really should have a fully formed strategy for how, when, where, why, and what to do about it. You need to know exactly what type of cloud migration is best for your business, and then spend the time and energy to form a comprehensive strategy to complete that move. Commencis Cloud Solutions excels in helping businesses through exactly this process, and to making sure that your business is optimized and stores its data in the most efficient and effective manner possible.

Banking is one of the world’s oldest businesses, and as such the sector is more than a little stuck in its old ways. But like every business, banks that haven’t embraced digitalisation risk being left behind. Digitalisation and mobile banking are modern requisites to understand what customers want and need, on top of how to optimize the customer journey. Particularly post-pandemic, mobile banking and digitalisation is critical to being able to bring 21st century customers into the fold.

Mind mapping is a visual tool that helps you organize your thoughts and ideas in an easy-to-read, graphic format. It’s a great way to brainstorm, plan projects, and organize.

Cloud computing solutions appear to get both easier and more complicated with each passing day. Where computing used to depend exclusively on an in-house cloud, public clouds like Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) changed the market, generating over $200 billion a year. More options can mean more flexibility and cheaper options, but it also means that you have to know what’s right for your business. Is a proprietary, secure cloud tailored exclusively to your business the best and most cost-effective option, or is a public, pre-existing public cloud the easiest where you can just plug and play? Or is there a third option?

In recent years, containers have had a significant impact on application modernization for both small and large organizations.

Mobile apps are a great way to ensure a streamlined user experience across digital devices, engage with customers, and build brand loyalty. Yet they can be expensive to build. The cost of mobile app development is one of the most influential keys to the success of any mobile app. To make it more tricky, there’s no single factor that will determine the total cost; instead, it’s a wide range of factors including the choice of OS, the complexity of the project, app features and design, and more.

When you would like to have a deeper understanding of a phenomenon, one approach can be putting them in groups to make it easier to comprehend.

Have you ever wanted to be informed when your app is installed for the first time by a user that is redirected to App Store via a link?

Every time you travel abroad, you come across the sort of awkward encounters that highlights cross-cultural differences.

All computing runs on servers, so what exactly does serverless computing mean and why are there pros and cons?

Have you known anyone who uses Google Glass in his daily life recently? Maybe a few years later this question will evolve into a new one asking who remembers it.

Here we are again, at the fresh start of a new year. But before let’s round up the things we did last year. 2019 has been good to us with new projects, inspiring work, fresh beginnings, trainings, conferences, workshops, social activities and a lot of travel. Take a moment to turn back for a while and remember some of the biggest highlights of the past year.

Do you want your entire company up in the clouds, or just leave your head up there while your company stays where it is?

Once upon a time, most of us who are over the age of 35 said back in the day that we couldn’t see the usefulness of a mobile app, or maybe that we thought 3-5 apps on your phone was more than enough.

When you bring data and design together, what you accomplish is the perfect way to design a product towards the users and the user experience you want most.

As each of us gets older the tech we use gets progressively more ingenious, but often times we find it progressively more difficult to use. Nowadays your refrigerator talks back to you, your toothbrushes have a mind of their own, your locks are the ones deciding who to let in and who to keep out.

How to use rightsizing, scalability, unused instances, discounts, storage lifecycle, data compression, FaaS, and more to optimize cloud costs and reduce bills.

How to use the cloud and protect it to keep it safe from cyber-attacks, insider leaks, legal liabilities, lack of standardisation, and other issues.

This blog post aims to give you some insights on how to access first element from a collection and pros& cons of lazy collections.

A data lake is a centralized repository or system that allows you to store all your structured, semi-structured or unstructured data at any scale.

Let’s say you have a brilliant idea for a new product or a service that you think a lot of people would be willing to buy. But without a credible plan to turn your idea into a marketable product, it is not possible to create a sustainable business. Although people come up with great business ideas every day, it’s the execution that truly matters.

The shift in focus from the “product/service” to the “customer” has long been a top priority for companies, especially in the banking industry. Needless to say, when it comes to customer experience, customer personalisation plays a role in creating relevant and unique experiences.

The difference between a popular app and an uninstalled/deleted app is often down to the quality of its user experience (UX) and user interface (UI). Both UX and UI work together in tandem, with UI ensuring an appealing look and feel and UX focusing on positive user interactions with each element inside the app. If you want to increase mobile app engagement and reduce uninstall rates, then UX/UI design must become an essential part of your business strategy.

WebSocket is a two-way computer communication protocol over a single TCP. This is a common definition for it. Using WebSockets is a good way to handle high scale data transfers between server-clients. You can find many definitions like that on the simple Google (or Bing :)) search.

Nowadays, data is the most valuable asset. In fact; data quality and how we process data often determine the game.

Over the last 10 years, technology has shifted from traditional software models to the internet. This means that the old local server days are over, so you can forget about the messy rooms filled with servers. Cloud computing appears to be the new era of the future of business.

A start-up or a large enterprise, bringing a new idea to life as a product to the market is always a big risk. Especially if you’re sure that you can successfully implement it. As a founder, you’re the one who will take the risk. This Genome report states that 74% of startups fade away because of scaling in the wrong phase or time.

Thinking of building your own mobile app? The decision to outsource app development or build in-house is a common dilemma for startup founders.

When you think about going in-house, the costs of developing a mobile app start to add up when you consider the salaries of mobile developers, length of the project, platforms used and maintenance costs. On the other hand, working with an experienced mobile app development company is often cheaper, more efficient, and can result in developing exceptional products faster.

Here are five reasons to consider outsourcing the development of your next mobile app.

Being designer in project teams may seem quite easy for some but is actually one of the hardest tasks. Because everyone except you might think that they could be a ‘’designer for 15 minutes!’’. Things done by those who have more technical business are considered as Pandora’s Box as they are usually perceived as unknown areas, so people do not dare to get too close to them. What about design? Is that so?

People usually forget that a designer’s role covers both making the most suitable design for the target group and trying to make most of the people happy at the same time. The design itself might be perceived as a process of putting designer’s personal delight on paper or screen by those who cannot see from the viewpoint of a designer. For that reason, people even out of this business do not have any difficulty in making comments such as “Does not that colour look better?, “So the trend is flat, we can continue like that?”, “Amazon (Apple etc.) did like that maybe we can do similar things.” or some of the brave ones might even say “We can exactly make the same of theirs”. That’s true that everyone has their own delights, but people can easily make these comments as they are not actually aware of the fact that the designers do not create anything pursuing their own pleasures.

PSD (Payment Services Directive) was adopted in 2007 to create rules and guidelines for simplified, efficient modern payment services in the European Union. However, as technology progressed PSD was not adequate enough to promote innovation, create competition, secure payments and protect consumers. As a result, PSD2 (The revised Payment Services Directive) came into play to increase security and create more innovative digital payments for today's digital consumers.

While designing interfaces for digital screens it’s important to think about the states and transactions between scenes and how these will integrate with each other. As we dive deeper into the navigational realms of a digital product, motion helps us understand the relationship between states and leaves us a trail so it’s easier to navigate throughout the final product we’re designing.

In a hot June day, I found myself teaching the basics of font design to my colleagues, here at Commencis. This article is about my experience throughout the design workshop.

Note that I am not an expert on font design, just a font geek.

The question has been popped, the ring is on, it’s time to celebrate love… then what? Exhausting and overwhelming wedding preparations, bridezillas, total meltdowns? No way! Not on our watch!

Like it or not, that time of year has arrived. Thanks to Saint Valentine, all roads lead to love, and it’s a great week to blend love and design!

If you search online for famous logo changes throughout recent times, you’re going to see some love and a whole lot of hate. In fact, people are generally not that receptive to logo redesigns, especially after they’ve already gotten used to the first one.

Most recently, Slack, Kate Spade and Zara launched their new logos shocking their fans. Slack replaced its original hashtag icon. Kate Spade changed its signature tag color from green to pink. And finally, Zara preferred to squash all the letters together in its new logo.

For the last few years, we have been experiencing a period in which trends themselves have become a trend. In this context, new interpretations of the art movements that date back many years before, or the structures that other companies have prepared for themselves become popular -with the excuse of making things easier!-; brands and products have become subject to disidentification; people try to use terms -Blockchain, Chatbot, Artificial Intelligence- at least once in a sentence without understanding their technologies; or some terms are used in graphic design interpretations -Bold Typography, Gradient and Vibrant Colors, Vintage Illustration etc.- as they are only included in the trend writings, although they do not fit their character.

WebAssembly (abbrev. WASM) is a newborn web standard that developed by W3C Community Group. The first release -v1.0- has shipped in major browser engines (Microsoft Edge, Firefox, Safari and Google Chrome). Also, WebAssembly is the first new language to be fully supported in every major browser since Javascript.

If you’ve managed to somehow avoid the internet’s frenzied hype around Bandersnatch, well done on making it this far. However, spoiler alert: We’re going to be talking a lot about Bandersnatch in this post.

Millennials have already proven that they are one of the most powerful and influential demographics – and they are getting even more important for the industries since they are expected to overtake Babyboomers in 2019. Even though millennials are classified as one demographic segment between the ages 18 to 40; it requires an unusual way of approach for organizations to engage with this tech-savvy, (and high maintenance!) demographic. Since their reactions and interactions are quite different from any other segments, you can say goodbye to traditional approaches, services or products. Well, it is not easy to influence the influencers!

In line with Commencis’ ethos is to resist convention, our developers incorporate emerging technologies into apps we design and develop. They also look for ways to make our internal processes even better to improve app quality and time to market. And Commencis Device Farm is another significant improvement in our app development process.

Innovative and creative services/solutions developed by utilising new technologies in every sector proved us, that it is possible to manage a lucrative business while providing efficient and delightful customer journey. Therefore customer expectations are getting higher – always pursuing agile and personalised solutions; and financial services customers are no different. So what does this mean for the future of the financial world, still dominated mostly by the traditional institutions with their bureaucracy, legacy systems and cumbersome cultures, and how does this all affect the customer experience?

Digital technologies and challenging new generation customer demands are transforming today’s business landscape. Especially the Millenials that brands have a love-hate relationship with; put brands under a considerable amount of pressure for innovations. Well, who can blame organisations when millennials are one of the most important groups of buyers – already the largest demographic in the US– today. It requires an unusual way of thinking for organisations to catch this tech-savvy demographic’s attention and design services/products that will enhance or build their brand loyalty, support their habits and user experience.

Big data has been taking the business world by storm for more than a decade. In 2005, Roger Mougalas probably wanted to make things official and coined the term Big Data for the first time; for the extremely large and complex datasets that traditional data processing applications were not able to manage.

Starting from the industrial revolution to a few decades ago, manufacturing in all industries had a certain set of requirements with rare exceptions. Hence, the process of manufacturing was repeatable. It was a best practice to define sequential processes which produce predictable results since it ensured both quality and planning precisely. Influenced by the success of this model, other industries adopted the same approach. Waterfall methodology in Software Industry is an example of this. Organizations made this approach a foundation to their way of working.

Forget about defining personas rotely and applying segmentation strategies from decades ago, which focus on the assumption that all the customers in the same segment follow the same linear path from awareness to purchase. Customer journeys are different depending on many factors and digital customer journey is now reshaping all the industries along the way. Unlike the traditional practices where redesigning the customer journey was on the back burner; now it is a profession, a full-time job. It must be traceable, scalable and actionable. So where do you to start to redesign the entire customer journey?

Have you ever seen or conducted a conventional usability test where users sit in a room and use a product as others observe them in another room? While it is undoubtedly one of the best ways to gain insights about your product, frankly the process is a little bulky and has little to no room for mobility. We, as well as most other companies that provide this service, usually have entire rooms and complex technical infrastructure built especially for this task.

We are in the era of the fourth industrial revolution. We? Oh, that’s us and the robots! While digital technologies disrupt long-established players in every business, they also open up a whole new world of opportunities. Since digitalization has been the main impetus for rethinking their future strategies, organizations need to look across industries and evaluate their services in terms of the broader business landscape.

As of July 2018, mobile app owners and developers have to meet compliance with iOS 11 SDK and iPhone X display in order to submit new apps and updates to the App Store. If they fail to do so, their apps will not be published in iOS app stores or cannot be updated. And they will be out of the game. Therefore, it’s absolutely critical for product owners to know what the new set of requirements are and what they really have to do about it.

The one concept Nietzsche, Thoreau and Hesse most probably tried to elude through their lives: Dependency. Even if one does not agree or embrace their philosophies, a programmer should — or must? — apply their way of thinking while programming.

Let’s define the problem first:

To achieve higher success rates in design and development projects, “performing” (productive) teams has vital importance and are needed. According to TSP Body of Knowledge [1] Self-directed or Self-managed teams are best suited for creative knowledge work, which can be considered as software projects. This literature survey considers whether the self-directed teams are the promising type of productive team formation within companies by responding to the following questions;

While you enjoy the great song by the Fab Four, let me tell you something: The revolution will not be centralized either. Thanks to Blockchain technology which is a hot topic around the world these days, we are about to see many things we’re accustomed to be changing or shape-shifting soon. Shopping, trading, transferring money, listening to music, voting and even getting married.

Hollywood loves to throw in some words from cryptographic terminology to make the protagonist look like a genius or to pull the audience into the illusion of enjoying a well thought script. Although they usually hire highly qualified technical people to back their story, terms that are flying around tend to be quite elementary.
