It inevitably involves data and content caching, one of the most difficult aspects, engineering-wise, of web development. One major caveat is Google App Engine , which is not compatible with all technologies. Unfortunately, in the world of software engineering, that’s a very real risk. Java, PHP, Python, Ruby?

My conclusion: if you’re a software engineer, with good technical background and ability, you can pretty much write your own ticket in Southern California. Or, what do you do if you’re just coming out of school and all you’ve done is Java coursework? Why do I say that? Build an app, get it into the App Store.

There are software applications, or workflow engines, that have been created to manage business processes.

January has been a very bad month for Ruby on Rails developers, with two high-severity security bugs permitting remote code execution found in the framework and a separate-but-related compromise on rubygems.org, a community resource which virtually all Ruby on Rails developers sit downstream of.
