From custom software development to cloud migration and team augmentation — our glossary explains key IT terms for decision-makers in Austria and the DACH region.
Cloud Migration
Cloud migration is the process of moving applications, data, and IT infrastructure from on-premise servers or legacy hosting to a cloud platform such as AWS, Microsoft Azure, or Google Cloud Platform. It includes re-hosting (lift-and-shift), re-platforming, re-architecting, and hybrid approaches.

Custom software development is the process of designing, building, deploying, and maintaining software tailored to the specific needs of an organisation or user group. Unlike off-the-shelf products, custom solutions are built from the ground up to address unique business processes, compliance requirements, and scalability goals.

Digital transformation is the strategic adoption of digital technologies to fundamentally change how a business operates and delivers value to customers. It goes beyond simply digitising paper processes — it involves rethinking business models, workflows, and customer experiences through technology.

MVP (Minimum Viable Product) development is a strategy where you build the smallest version of a product that delivers core value to early users. The goal is to validate your market hypothesis, gather real user feedback, and iterate before investing in full-scale development.
