Salient Features of Desktop Application

The main characteristics of that give desktop applications plenty of attentions are:

Java EE

reliability

secure backend processing

But the fact that desktop application development is used in homes and for business purposes has proven to be a disadvantage to their development.

processing requirements

security requirements

availability in adverse network conditions

The variation in client platforms is the cause of such a regression in desktop development.

Mobiles and web are regarded as more convenient by clients:

light weight

secure

Clients mostly prefer mobile devices and web as they can be carried easily and are highly reliable with secure back-end processing. This is the core reason on what web development companies in India are cashing. Consumers are giving more importance to mobile devices that are not like pertaining desktops. The traditional desktops are only being used by their developers and by some to do the daily jobs.

An Eye on the Past

Today the world has changed a lot. Desktops have almost vanished and are giving way to mobiles and web. This reminds me how years back we were facing data center problems; equipped with one or more computers and had no web. Earlier there were only telephones and no cellular phone. Even e-mail was not so familiar to everyone. At that time PCs enabled us only to send and receive faxes and also worked as telephone answering machines.

Conclusion

Putting all these together it is clear that desktop development applications are having little publicity today. Major companies have dumped their desktop development applications due to lack of publicity. There is no question that mobile devices and web are exciting and challenging. There is plenty of room for their improvement. This puts forward the question of the need of desktop today.
