Technology AND Process in Software Development.

Most people think technology solves all issues not realizing importance of process. I am often a believer that the process should be in place before adopting the technology. Sometimes software teams try to fit new technologies with older process. This further adds to complex and error prone process and hence wasted efforts. Therefore it’s of utmost important to define a new process when a new technology is planned. Unfortunately this would mean more time needed from the Architects to establish such a mechanism since they cannot use an older process. But more than not utilizing the older process it also is an issue of convincing the developers and management more convincingly. This is like saying hurricane Wilma would be a two or a three either way you need to be prepared for it.
