How Xamarin And Azure Are Changing The Apps Landscape

The mobile device market is rising faster than one could ever expect. The revenue from mobile apps and the amount of GooglePlay and Apple App Store installs are rising exponentially. This creation poses a challenge for developers under constant pressure to produce high-quality, bug-free, performance-driven, and user-friendly software in the shortest possible period. Further, they need to ensure acute usability when operating in a stable backend mobile ecosystem. The wide variety of mobile platforms also makes it hard for developers to build native applications and devices.

However, when developing applications for different platforms, cross-platform mobile development removes some of this pain from the developers. Also, the growth of cloud-connected mobile apps is making the updates and iterations hassle-free. Hosting the app on a centralized server eliminates downtime by automated scalability, improved app management, and improves the potential for quicker turn around to market changes.

Xamarin for cross-platform application development and Microsoft Azure app development for cloud computing services are emerging as the most trendy technology platforms for cross-platform and cloud-connected app development as part of this strategy.

Let's take a look at the list of benefits offered by:

1. Faster Time to Market with Decreased Development Time

Xamarin, Microsoft's cross-platform native mobile application development system, reports that it reduces application development time by almost 60%. It also comes with shared code logic and allows component sharing for app logic, business objects, data access layers, and more across multiple platforms. Xamarin dramatically decreases the production and go-to-market time because much of the code is shared, requiring only a few platform-specific changes.

2. Improved Climate for Mobile Growth

Microsoft offers a deep Xamarin and Azure cloud integration that provides developers with a smarter mobile app development platform that helps build rich mobile apps and robust business solutions. The Azure cloud and excellent maintenance and support also come with the added benefits of scalability, on-demand resources, and cost-effectiveness with hiring XAM.

3. Good Reviews

The list of bugs that developers struggle with day-in and day-out curtails using the shared code with Xamarin. It also provides the developers access to the Xamarin TestCloud, which they can use to test applications with CI, fragmentation, object-based UI testing, and more.

4. Protection of Enhanced Application

Using Xamarin and Azure enables application developers to manage the minefield of app and data protection without any hassle. As the links between various components of the app hosted on the Microsoft Azure cloud are encrypted, it boosts the applications' security. Besides, Azure offers HTTP certificates with 24-hour threat detection protection to guard against malware to secure the mobile app and backend connectivity.

In conclusion, since mobile apps developers cannot deal with fragmented networks, Xamarin and Azure provide just the right solution for fast-tracking apps' creation with uninterrupted access to the network.
