Systems Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is any logical process used by a systems analyst to develop an information system, including requirements, validation, training, and user ownership. An SDLC should result in a high quality system that meets or exceeds customer expectations, is completed within time and cost estimates, works effectively and efficiently in the current and planned IT infrastructure, is inexpensive to maintain, and cost-effective to enhance.

The mission of software development within Astegic is to develop software solutions and products, not prototypes or proof of concepts (POC). A formal process ensures that true business requirements are met by the products development. These practices outline how Astegic ensures its software is:

• Free of defects
• Scalable
• Capacity Able
• Secure
• Redundant and highly available

The production SDLC refers to the different phases of any new development, content changes, bug fixes, and/or enhancements to a solution. Different phases in the SDLC include the following phases:

• Analysis
• Design
• Development
• Evaluation
