Over the past few years, the developments in the field of web applications have surpassed all expectations. The rate at which new web applications are launched in the market is not even believable. It is another matter that only a few can survive while others disappear thanks to the tough competition that exists. The job for the developers is challenging to say the least.
Not only do they have come up with a design that is unique, they also must cater to the various devices on which the same applications can be used and the traffic that it will face. From the desktop computer to the hand-held devices like tablets and mobiles, the application must be compatible on all platforms. The screen size and its resolution on each of these devices is different, not to forget the operating system, and this brings us to the issue of scalability in web application development.
