ENHANCING SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT: STRATEGIES FOR ACHIEVING CODE PORTABILITY ACROSS TECHNOLOGY PLATFORMS

Abstract

In today's rapidly evolving technology landscape, code portability has become a critical factor in enhancing software development efficiency and effectiveness. This paper explores various strategies for achieving code portability across multiple technology platforms, emphasizing the importance of transforming complex business logic to meet diverse operational needs. As organizations face the challenge of adapting legacy code written in traditional languages (such as SQL) to modern frameworks (such as Python), a framework-based approach emerges as a viable solution. By leveraging this approach, companies can significantly improve performance, scalability, and maintainability of their software applications. The transition not only facilitates smoother integration with contemporary technologies but also unlocks substantial cost savings—potentially in the millions of dollars—by reducing development time and resource expenditures. Through a comprehensive examination of successful case studies and best practices, this paper advocates for the adoption of code portability strategies that can drive substantial financial benefits while fostering agility in software development.
