The Client Log
A Typical day at the firm
Production management is what happens on regular days. Running a business that offers
development services, means you ship out products you make to someone else, who then
owns and sells it to others. While it is hard to give up ownership, there are perks to being
the most important cog in the wheel. A stream of interesting ideas will find their way to
you. You will get to build some pretty awesome products or services that bring value to
millions out there.
The usual day at the firm (for those who haven’t guessed, we are a development services
provider) begins with checks to see if production is on schedule. Resolving impediments or
addressing requests for additional resources take up most of the work day.
Walk-in Days
But some days are refreshingly different. Days when prospective clients walk-in or reach
out with interesting new ideas. If it is an idea that seems promising, you will want it to be
built as much as the guy sitting across you. But, ideas need resources to materialise and
patrons to survive. Both you and the prospective client will now embark on a shared quest
to draw the perfect blueprint for the project. The customer has a rough blueprint and an
initial set of specifications laid out for you. The specifications centre on themes like the
choice of IT model, the business objectives, the product features and functionality. You
offer a few suggestions based on your vast experience with product development. The
client seems intrigued by some of the ideas put forth. He requests a detailed report that
sets out the development process, the methodologies and infrastructure in detail.
It’s time to call for a team meeting…..

1TEAM
CHALLENGE
When a new idea finds its way to the firm, it calls for a team meet. We bring in the experts
to solve the business and technology riddles presented by the client. What follows are
lively discussions among team members, with ideas that garner most support making it to
the whiteboard.
Leaning towards LEAN
The list on the board was impressive…
The ideas on there could all be grouped under the lean paradigm. Once the principles were
agreed upon, the team settles down to chalking out a detailed strategy. The possible
impediments and enablers are identified. Any learnings from previous projects are
discussed. One final task remains. The contours of the project report are left to be finalized.

5 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
It is decided that the report will focus on the lean theme. The first part of the report will
introduce the lean-agile paradigm. It will also convey the benefits that lean development
practices will bring to the project. The second part of the report will outline the various
stages of product development. The report also tries to highlight the complementarities
between Google App Engine and the Lean paradigm where applicable.
Our pre-sales team is then assigned the task of coming up with a report along the decided
lines.
6 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
The Report
The report is ready and is reviewed
one final time. It does an excellent
job of conveying the thought and
process which the firm uses to
create successful products.
It is now time for you to take a
look….

2ALGORITHMIC
LIVING
We live in a bold world. Our world is constantly innovating smarter ways of doing things.
Would software be left behind? Of course, not! Software is ubiquitous in modern life. If you
pause to think, algorithms are the most important adjuncts to modern way of life. ‘Code’
helps you decode many things in life….for example:
Code, the Language that runs modern life
Tinder: Helps you find your next date
Google Search: Finds answers to your queries
Google Maps: Helps you get to your destination
Amazon: Is your favourite shopping assistant
8 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
All of this and more is run by languages which we can only write but not speak. The process
of writing algorithms/code is called development. The early models of software
development were borrowed from those used in hardware industries. This crude adaptation
of models from hardware industry worked well for large projects. For instance, the
structured process of the waterfall model suits projects where requirements and scope are
fixed, and technology is well understood. Conversely, it does not suit dynamic contexts,
which favour a more evolutionary style of development.
Startups and large enterprises both want to avoid market failure. The lean movement is a
product of this desire to minimise risk and maximise value.
How Lean is Not Traditional
The traditional business model is giving way to the lean start-up. The lean startup
movement has a more exploratory approach to the business of launching a new service or
product. A stark contrast to the old regime, which relied on the perfect plan, long-term
forecasts and stealth working mode to get a product out into the market.
What ‘Lean’ People Know
The lean startup assumes that
• The business model is not perfect
• The right product-market fit will only reveal itself through trial-and-error methods
• Product success/failure can only be guessed at through real consumer feedback.
Lean methodology thrives on creating variation and learning from it. Different hypotheses
are tested, revised and discarded. A continuous customer feedback loop is established both
pre- and post- product launch. This strategy ensures that too much money isn’t poured into
ideas that would end up failing.
9 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
The Winning Philosophy
It’s a sound philosophy. If you are competing in a game, it would be prudent to discover
your weaknesses early on and work on improving them. The alternative would be to find
out on field and suffer a crushing defeat with no hope of changing the verdict. If lean
methods are widely adopted, they will reduce the incidence of start-up failure, which at the
moment stands quite high.
The B Team
Alternative development methodologies like the Lean-Agile model and devOps movement
are the B team. They have tried to address the limitations of the A team, a.k.a the waterfall
model.
The newer lower risk models follow incremental, iterative processes that rely on continuous
delivery and integration. The change in methodologies has been helped along by the
emergence of cloud computing.
Given their popularity and apparent value, it is pertinent to introduce these concepts and
understand the synergies between these methods and the cloud computing paradigm in
general.
Lean-agile methodology
“Think big, act small, fail fast; learn rapidly.
”
10 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
A new development hire in a large firm is usually given a lengthy manual of project
documentation on his first week on the job. He may frown at the bulky manual, but once
he pores over its contents, he is ready to join the team. The beauty of the traditional
waterfall model lies in its simplicity and robust documentation. New members can easily
replace old ones in such processes. This is absent in lean methods which often don’t
support extensive documentation. Despite this disadvantage, lean methods are rapidly
gaining in popularity in the IT industry. The answer to this seeming contradiction lies in the
‘business value’ lean principles bring to firms, which also explains their popularity.
The Right Focus
Lean methodology owes its success to its laser-sharp focus on the right elements needed
to ensure product success.
1. Build the right thing
Discover and deliver
value to real costumers
3. Build the thing right
Build quality and integri-
ty into the product with
automated testing and
integration
4.Learn through
feedback
The product design must
be perfected through
frequent feedback right
from the earliest stages
of production.
2. Build it fast
Reduce lead time. The
time between customer
order to solution delivery
is reduced drastically.
11 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
LEAN principles
The lean-agile methodology has evolved it’s development practices based on a set of
foundational principles. A cursory glance will help understand the specifics of the lean
software development that would be introduced next.
1. Eliminate waste
2. Amplify learning
3. Decide as late as possible
4. Deliver as fast as possible
5. Empower the team
6. Build integrity in
7. See the whole
A New Manifesto for Software Development
Lean software development combines lean methodology with agile practices. The principles
behind this method stem from lean manufacturing principles.
In the waterfall model, the software moves through set stages of design, development,
testing and deployment. Testing and integration were usually left to the end of the devel-
opment chain. The process meant that defects went undetected for a long time.
To counter the negatives of sequential processes, lean- agile software development practic-
es focus on fast feedback cycles:
1. Test-driven development
Accumulation of defects is prevented by running tests as soon as the code is written.
Automated testing is a part of this methodology and is used to build integrity into the
product.
12 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
2. Continuous integration
The code is integrated into the code base frequently and in small increments. Simultaneous
testing is done to check if the newly added code is running smoothly without introducing
errors.
3. Iterative development
The software development cycle is kept short, with a working application being readied in
short iterations of 2-4 weeks. The iteration is followed by review.
4. Cross-functional teams
If one goes by Lean-Agile believers, cross-functional teams are the best teams when it
comes to software development. What is a cross functional team?
Lean IT model (cloud computing)
Cloud computing IT model has replaced traditional model of IT provisioning. The cloud
rents computing muscle along with range of management services. These have lowered the
price and complexity inherent in software development greatly.
How the ‘Cloud’ is Lean
A. PaaS: Cuts down the development costs. Ensures critical developer time is not lost in
routine maintenan
A team with members who have all the necessary functional and domain skills to
successfully develop and deploy a software product. Such teams include developers,
testers, project managers, systems administrators, release managers, and business
domain experts among others.
13 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
B. IaaS: Pay-as-you-use model. Ensures you pay only for what you use at each stage in the
product lifecycle.
C. Infinite scalability: The cloud offers infinite scalability at competitive prices. In traditional
models, provisioning for demands spikes meant that servers were kept idle for most of the
year.
Cloud and Lean: The Recipe for Product Success
Cloud computing provides easy and automated provisioning of environments. The cloud is
not just computing infrastructure (VMs and Network Resources). Cloud offers a range of
partial to fully managed services like storage, analytics, PaaS and management services atop
this infrastructure. Cloud is also pushing for newer architectures like microservices architec-
ture which will underlie the next generation of cloud applications. The cloud framework is
entirely congruent with the lean methodology principles. Let’s understand why…
A. Eliminating waste through A/B testing
Google App Engine allows testing of multiple versions of the application. A/B testing and
tracking cookies can help gauge consumer response to different versions of the application.
This can help trim unnecessary features.
B. Build Integrity In through Testing
Google App Engine allows unit testing and integration testing of the code while it is in
development. Identifying mistakes early saves time and money. Also, it allows quality to be
built into the application early on.
C. Deliver as fast as possible through PaaS
Google App Engine is fully managed and hence applications can be developed and
deployed in a short time. Reducing lead time is a stated goal of the lean model.
14 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
The Future: Lean as the Norm
Lean start-up methods aren’t just for young tech ventures. Large companies, such as GE
and Intuit, have begun to implement them too.
Lean-agile methodologies will become the de facto software development methods in
the next decade. Early adoption of these practices will increase product competitiveness
and help businesses stay ahead of the pack.
15 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
3The App trail is something everyone embarking on product development must be familiar
with. If you are an enterprise CIO overseeing numerous in-house development teams you
will be familiar with most of what we are about to tell you. Alternatively, if you are a startup
entrepreneur with limited product development expertise you are in the best chapter of
your life, so to speak. Why you ask?
Connecting the Dots: New Needs Breed New Methods
We have already introduced you to changes sweeping through the world of software
development – the agile-lean methodologies, devOps and Cloud computing. These chang-
es reflect the changes in IT environment as a whole. Cloud computing has democratized
cutting-edge technologies that allow applications to be launched quickly and cheaply. This
has sparked off an app race. The market is witnessing new and interesting use cases that
debut new services or service old problems in new ways. Most of these new products are
launched by startups headed by first generation entrepreneurs. The traditional heavy
methodologies cannot serve this new clientele. So what software development model
matches startup needs?
APP TRAIL
How ideas move out of the
drawing board onto the app store
16 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
Agile-Lean Model: Development that sparks Discoveries
The startup clientele is a mixed package, a combination of creative abundance on one side
and resource crunch on the other. Also, a startup idea is usually hazy atleast on some of
the details. Understandably so, given that founders are not always experts in the particular
domain or market. In such cases, the optimum product-market fit is not clear at the outset
and is usually achieved after a few iterations. The development process has to aid this
discovery. Agile-lean, devOps and cloud computing paradigms are best suited to such
dynamic development contexts.

”“
17 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
Before you give wings to your startup dreams, test your idea. Product validation through
market analysis and concept testing is crucial. This is because even the most brilliant ideas
are not immune to the vagaries of the market.
Solving the Outsourcing Dilemma: End-to-End Product
Development
Does it mean cost concerns weigh higher than quality for most enterprises and startups?
It’s never that simple. True, outsourcing is a significant cost and time saver. But, attracting
the best IT talent with all the different skill sets required for end-to-end product develop-
ment is not easy or necessary. In a world where technology and skills become obsolete
quickly, it is not prudent to spend time building teams whose skills may not serve you for
long. It is easier to hire a firm providing end-to-end product development services. This is
why OPD will continue to shine.
Why end-to-end product development?
An integrated design and development model where the development partner is brought
onboard early on helps in clear understanding of the business objectives as well as user
goals. This solves the quality issues and communication headaches inherent in outsourcing
model.
18 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
‘New’ Engagement models: Emphasize Collaboration and
Co-Creation
• Engaging with clients and users to identify needs
• Defining product specifications
• Building mockups and prototypes to test user experience
‘New’ Software development methodologies
Dedicated cross-functional teams to work on a client’s product through its entire lifecycle
• Each team = Requisite ‘Technical skills’ + ‘Management skills’ for product development
Now to the stages…
Super Teams: ‘Empowered’ + ‘Agile-Lean’
COUNTDOWN TO LIVE APP
Now let’s look at the stages expected in a general app building exercise. We
are outlining a scenario where the development partner is brought onboard
for end-to-end product development. It may well be the case, that the client
has in-house capabilities for taking up some of these stages independently.
In which case, the client may only require limited application development
and deployment services. But bringing the development team into the loop
early can result in time and cost savings, as we already pointed out earlier.
19 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
Stage 1: Discovery Workshops
This stage usually brings the client team and the vendor together for intense brainstorming
sessions. All the requirements are identified. Once the feature set is identified, a product
roadmap is built. The roadmap unifies the features and release schedules onto a single
timeline. This visual product roadmap is communicated to all key stakeholders. Developers
and testers must be made a part of planning, because their input will help identify technical
limitations and opportunities.
Deliverables:
• Requirement Book – Functional and non-functional requirements
• User stories
• Clarification of concept
• Project Guidelines
• API Specification
• Visual Product Roadmap
Brainstorming sessions throw up a lot of good ideas. The first release is
usually a minimum viable product (MVP) which heroes the core value of the
product. But capturing ideas in a roadmap would be a brilliant move. This
will guide future product enhancements.
More realistic Project estimates. Agile methods push for an early release of
the MVP. This helps in generating real user feedback and ensures that
money and time are spent on developing right set of features in future
releases.
20 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
A user story is a tool used to capture a description of a software feature from an
end-user perspective. The user story describes the type of user, what they want
and why. A user story helps to create a simplified description of a requirement. The
development team's job is to take care of how to develop the code that will satisfy
the requirements of the user story.
Stage 2: Wireframing 101: Wireframes/Mockups/Prototypes
A great User Experience (UX) is the sin qua non for present day apps. A wireframe conveys
the key features, their structure and the basic UI of the final product. It tries to create a
clear visual memory of the product design in the minds of key stakeholders.
Why mock ups:
Here’s your answer:
When done right, wire-framing can act as an aid to communication. If the
product has a rapid release schedule, it will help development teams visual-
ize the tasks ahead.
Due to their non-interactive nature wireframes are not used in testing. But
they can still provide initial feedback on UI design and help correct obvious
errors saving time.
A wireframe is worth a 1000 spreadsheets
You can fix it now on the drafting board with an eraser or you can fix it later on the
construction site with a sledge hammer.
21 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
Mockups are different from wireframes. They are static visual representations of the final
product design. They are emerging as the alternative to good old requirement books.
Mockups are used to generate early stakeholder buy-in, as well as to review the visual
design. Balsamiq is a software tool that is great for creating semi-functional mockups that
can be used in demos and usability tests.
Prototypes are a progression over wireframes and mockups. They are interactive and hence
costlier. Prototypes are semi-functional and are used in user testing. Translating ideas into
rapid prototypes using HTML/CSS and Angular.js will help clients visualize the final prod-
uct. User testing of prototypes will also flag design and experience issues.
Deliverables:
• Wireframes/Mockups/Prototype
Stage 3: Decoding Design, Specifying Tests
Once the final wireframes are ready, stakeholders review if the design meets the core
functional requirements. Sometimes, a few alternatives of the selected UI design with slight
modifications are generated. These are tested later to arrive on the final design. This
process is crucial, as too many design iterations post release may harm the product.
Writing test plans and specifications is intrinsic in agile methodologies which have develop-
ers and testers working in tandem throughout the development process. Defining tests
helps clearly communicate the stakeholder expectations to developers. In an agile software
development framework, acceptance tests are often akin to detailed requirement specifica-
tions.
Deliverables:
• UI designs
• Framing of acceptance tests
22 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
Stage 4: Development and Testing
Now the actual fun begins. The code goes into production. User stories are converted to
code. Once the short pieces of code are developed they are subject to unit testing. The
pieces of code are then integrated and the entire thematic module is tested together. Here,
different versions of the code, with slight modifications can be tested together. A/B testing
is useful in getting the optimal product market fit.
Deliverables:
• Application code
• Unit testing
• A/B testing
Stage 5: User Acceptance Testing (UAT) & Quality Checks
Once you are ready with a functional application, its crunch time. Before it is launched to
the world a final test of the app by real end users is recommended. An alpha or beta release
which is tested by a select group of end users can help identify issues that have been
overlooked or were undiscovered. UATs need to be diverse by default – the app needs to
be tested on different devices by diverse sets of users to throw up some real insights.
Google App Engine has in-built ability to support A/B testing. Multiple
versions of application can be run in parallel and user response is gauged
through cookies. Different versions usually involve subtle modifications to
the UI.
23 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
The Pivot to Market Success
User Acceptance tests help in determining if the application has achieved Product market
Fit (PMF). The product features are tweaked until it reaches the PMF. This practice of
iterating the product until it achieves PMF is called Pivot.
Integration with third party applications like Intercom, Mouseflow help in gaining insights
on which product features or functional flows are finding traction and those that are not.
Build or Buy?
Custom Solutions are not popular anymore, most enterprises are licensing third-party
off-the-shelf solutions to meet their business needs or for enhancing their product experi-
ence.
‘Jazz Up’ Customer Experience
Integrations help small startups leverage the power of IT to meet complex business goals
and to enhance customer experiences. Integration of Google cloud platform services with
third party solutions is easy and rewarding. For example, consider Intercom the customer
success solution. Intercom exposes a rich REST API for interacting with its services; this
can be integrated with a Google App Engine hosted application.
Google App Engine allows easy integration with third party solutions
24 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
How you can use the Intercom REST API:
1. To pull data from it and use it for analytic purposes
2. To push data to it, Data that can enrich the service for customers
To generate sophisticated business or market intelligence on your product, all you need to
do is write a few extra lines of code. This code will extract data from Intercom and load it to
Google’s Big Query service. Big Query then uses its analytics might to start generating
actionable insights from the data.
Must-have 3rd party integrations
• Payment gateway integration (paypal, braintree, stripe)
• User Guides (inline manual, walkme)
• email communication (send grid, mandrilll)
• sms and call integration (twilio)
• Customer adoption and communication (Intercom)
Deliverables:
• A Alpha/Beta Version of App
• User Feedback
• Integration testing with 3rd party solutions
• Performance testing
25 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
Google App Engine offers infinite scalability at industry leading prices
Stage 6: Deployment and Support
Post deployment performance is crucial to a products market success. Only a lucky few
products go viral, and you don’t want your servers to crash if you happen to be the lucky
one. Imagine going down the annals of app history as a one-day wonder. So, redundancy
and scalability have to built into the design. Product performance relies on proper provi-
sioning and good server architecture. Network performance tests and traffic handling tests
are conducted on the app before it goes live. Network issues both during testing and after
launch must be resolved promptly through a robust ticketing system.
Deliverables:
• Deployment and Support Documentation
• Full integration with third party solutions
• Final Application
The Continuous delivery Paradigm
What we saw was one full cycle of product development. The current paradigm in software
development is geared towards an extended lifecycle for product development. Patches,
upgrades and multiple releases are the new norm. This necessitates that the development
partnership continue post release. Companies stand to gain from such a scenario, as they
• Get expert maintenance support over the life of the product
• Can support continuous releases
• Ensure the product is fine-tuned to changes in market
26 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE
You have clocked more miles on your product development journey. With this you have
learnt:
How products get built. The methodologies, the stages and best practices involved in
developing products for our times.
But we have so far held back on discussing the philosophy that ties all of this together.
Great products tap on the creative geniuses of many minds, tied together by a guiding
philosophy. Seth Godin nailed the crux of the philosophy that must propel product devel-
opment when he said
“Don’t find customers for your products; find products for
your customers
”Designing a product is designing a relationship with your customers. Pick the right team!
For, together you must build a beautiful relationship with your audience.

How Ideas Move from Concept to App Store

  • 1. The App Trail How ideas move out of the drawing board onto the app store
  • 2. 2 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE Contents Prologue 03 Team Challenge 04 07 Algorithmic Living 15 App Trail Conclusion 27 The Resume 28
  • 3. 3 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE The Client Log A Typical day at the firm Production management is what happens on regular days. Running a business that offers development services, means you ship out products you make to someone else, who then owns and sells it to others. While it is hard to give up ownership, there are perks to being the most important cog in the wheel. A stream of interesting ideas will find their way to you. You will get to build some pretty awesome products or services that bring value to millions out there. The usual day at the firm (for those who haven’t guessed, we are a development services provider) begins with checks to see if production is on schedule. Resolving impediments or addressing requests for additional resources take up most of the work day. Walk-in Days But some days are refreshingly different. Days when prospective clients walk-in or reach out with interesting new ideas. If it is an idea that seems promising, you will want it to be built as much as the guy sitting across you. But, ideas need resources to materialise and patrons to survive. Both you and the prospective client will now embark on a shared quest to draw the perfect blueprint for the project. The customer has a rough blueprint and an initial set of specifications laid out for you. The specifications centre on themes like the choice of IT model, the business objectives, the product features and functionality. You offer a few suggestions based on your vast experience with product development. The client seems intrigued by some of the ideas put forth. He requests a detailed report that sets out the development process, the methodologies and infrastructure in detail. It’s time to call for a team meeting…..
  • 4. 4 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE 1TEAM CHALLENGE When a new idea finds its way to the firm, it calls for a team meet. We bring in the experts to solve the business and technology riddles presented by the client. What follows are lively discussions among team members, with ideas that garner most support making it to the whiteboard. Leaning towards LEAN The list on the board was impressive… The ideas on there could all be grouped under the lean paradigm. Once the principles were agreed upon, the team settles down to chalking out a detailed strategy. The possible impediments and enablers are identified. Any learnings from previous projects are discussed. One final task remains. The contours of the project report are left to be finalized. Google App Engine Lean Software Development Agile Practices Dev Opps
  • 5. 5 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE It is decided that the report will focus on the lean theme. The first part of the report will introduce the lean-agile paradigm. It will also convey the benefits that lean development practices will bring to the project. The second part of the report will outline the various stages of product development. The report also tries to highlight the complementarities between Google App Engine and the Lean paradigm where applicable. Our pre-sales team is then assigned the task of coming up with a report along the decided lines.
  • 6. 6 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE The Report The report is ready and is reviewed one final time. It does an excellent job of conveying the thought and process which the firm uses to create successful products. It is now time for you to take a look….
  • 7. 7 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE 2ALGORITHMIC LIVING We live in a bold world. Our world is constantly innovating smarter ways of doing things. Would software be left behind? Of course, not! Software is ubiquitous in modern life. If you pause to think, algorithms are the most important adjuncts to modern way of life. ‘Code’ helps you decode many things in life….for example: Code, the Language that runs modern life Tinder: Helps you find your next date Google Search: Finds answers to your queries Google Maps: Helps you get to your destination Amazon: Is your favourite shopping assistant
  • 8. 8 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE All of this and more is run by languages which we can only write but not speak. The process of writing algorithms/code is called development. The early models of software development were borrowed from those used in hardware industries. This crude adaptation of models from hardware industry worked well for large projects. For instance, the structured process of the waterfall model suits projects where requirements and scope are fixed, and technology is well understood. Conversely, it does not suit dynamic contexts, which favour a more evolutionary style of development. Startups and large enterprises both want to avoid market failure. The lean movement is a product of this desire to minimise risk and maximise value. How Lean is Not Traditional The traditional business model is giving way to the lean start-up. The lean startup movement has a more exploratory approach to the business of launching a new service or product. A stark contrast to the old regime, which relied on the perfect plan, long-term forecasts and stealth working mode to get a product out into the market. What ‘Lean’ People Know The lean startup assumes that • The business model is not perfect • The right product-market fit will only reveal itself through trial-and-error methods • Product success/failure can only be guessed at through real consumer feedback. Lean methodology thrives on creating variation and learning from it. Different hypotheses are tested, revised and discarded. A continuous customer feedback loop is established both pre- and post- product launch. This strategy ensures that too much money isn’t poured into ideas that would end up failing.
  • 9. 9 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE The Winning Philosophy It’s a sound philosophy. If you are competing in a game, it would be prudent to discover your weaknesses early on and work on improving them. The alternative would be to find out on field and suffer a crushing defeat with no hope of changing the verdict. If lean methods are widely adopted, they will reduce the incidence of start-up failure, which at the moment stands quite high. The B Team Alternative development methodologies like the Lean-Agile model and devOps movement are the B team. They have tried to address the limitations of the A team, a.k.a the waterfall model. The newer lower risk models follow incremental, iterative processes that rely on continuous delivery and integration. The change in methodologies has been helped along by the emergence of cloud computing. Given their popularity and apparent value, it is pertinent to introduce these concepts and understand the synergies between these methods and the cloud computing paradigm in general. Lean-agile methodology “Think big, act small, fail fast; learn rapidly. ”
  • 10. 10 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE A new development hire in a large firm is usually given a lengthy manual of project documentation on his first week on the job. He may frown at the bulky manual, but once he pores over its contents, he is ready to join the team. The beauty of the traditional waterfall model lies in its simplicity and robust documentation. New members can easily replace old ones in such processes. This is absent in lean methods which often don’t support extensive documentation. Despite this disadvantage, lean methods are rapidly gaining in popularity in the IT industry. The answer to this seeming contradiction lies in the ‘business value’ lean principles bring to firms, which also explains their popularity. The Right Focus Lean methodology owes its success to its laser-sharp focus on the right elements needed to ensure product success. 1. Build the right thing Discover and deliver value to real costumers 3. Build the thing right Build quality and integri- ty into the product with automated testing and integration 4.Learn through feedback The product design must be perfected through frequent feedback right from the earliest stages of production. 2. Build it fast Reduce lead time. The time between customer order to solution delivery is reduced drastically.
  • 11. 11 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE LEAN principles The lean-agile methodology has evolved it’s development practices based on a set of foundational principles. A cursory glance will help understand the specifics of the lean software development that would be introduced next. 1. Eliminate waste 2. Amplify learning 3. Decide as late as possible 4. Deliver as fast as possible 5. Empower the team 6. Build integrity in 7. See the whole A New Manifesto for Software Development Lean software development combines lean methodology with agile practices. The principles behind this method stem from lean manufacturing principles. In the waterfall model, the software moves through set stages of design, development, testing and deployment. Testing and integration were usually left to the end of the devel- opment chain. The process meant that defects went undetected for a long time. To counter the negatives of sequential processes, lean- agile software development practic- es focus on fast feedback cycles: 1. Test-driven development Accumulation of defects is prevented by running tests as soon as the code is written. Automated testing is a part of this methodology and is used to build integrity into the product.
  • 12. 12 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE 2. Continuous integration The code is integrated into the code base frequently and in small increments. Simultaneous testing is done to check if the newly added code is running smoothly without introducing errors. 3. Iterative development The software development cycle is kept short, with a working application being readied in short iterations of 2-4 weeks. The iteration is followed by review. 4. Cross-functional teams If one goes by Lean-Agile believers, cross-functional teams are the best teams when it comes to software development. What is a cross functional team? Lean IT model (cloud computing) Cloud computing IT model has replaced traditional model of IT provisioning. The cloud rents computing muscle along with range of management services. These have lowered the price and complexity inherent in software development greatly. How the ‘Cloud’ is Lean A. PaaS: Cuts down the development costs. Ensures critical developer time is not lost in routine maintenan A team with members who have all the necessary functional and domain skills to successfully develop and deploy a software product. Such teams include developers, testers, project managers, systems administrators, release managers, and business domain experts among others.
  • 13. 13 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE B. IaaS: Pay-as-you-use model. Ensures you pay only for what you use at each stage in the product lifecycle. C. Infinite scalability: The cloud offers infinite scalability at competitive prices. In traditional models, provisioning for demands spikes meant that servers were kept idle for most of the year. Cloud and Lean: The Recipe for Product Success Cloud computing provides easy and automated provisioning of environments. The cloud is not just computing infrastructure (VMs and Network Resources). Cloud offers a range of partial to fully managed services like storage, analytics, PaaS and management services atop this infrastructure. Cloud is also pushing for newer architectures like microservices architec- ture which will underlie the next generation of cloud applications. The cloud framework is entirely congruent with the lean methodology principles. Let’s understand why… A. Eliminating waste through A/B testing Google App Engine allows testing of multiple versions of the application. A/B testing and tracking cookies can help gauge consumer response to different versions of the application. This can help trim unnecessary features. B. Build Integrity In through Testing Google App Engine allows unit testing and integration testing of the code while it is in development. Identifying mistakes early saves time and money. Also, it allows quality to be built into the application early on. C. Deliver as fast as possible through PaaS Google App Engine is fully managed and hence applications can be developed and deployed in a short time. Reducing lead time is a stated goal of the lean model.
  • 14. 14 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE The Future: Lean as the Norm Lean start-up methods aren’t just for young tech ventures. Large companies, such as GE and Intuit, have begun to implement them too. Lean-agile methodologies will become the de facto software development methods in the next decade. Early adoption of these practices will increase product competitiveness and help businesses stay ahead of the pack.
  • 15. 15 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE 3The App trail is something everyone embarking on product development must be familiar with. If you are an enterprise CIO overseeing numerous in-house development teams you will be familiar with most of what we are about to tell you. Alternatively, if you are a startup entrepreneur with limited product development expertise you are in the best chapter of your life, so to speak. Why you ask? Connecting the Dots: New Needs Breed New Methods We have already introduced you to changes sweeping through the world of software development – the agile-lean methodologies, devOps and Cloud computing. These chang- es reflect the changes in IT environment as a whole. Cloud computing has democratized cutting-edge technologies that allow applications to be launched quickly and cheaply. This has sparked off an app race. The market is witnessing new and interesting use cases that debut new services or service old problems in new ways. Most of these new products are launched by startups headed by first generation entrepreneurs. The traditional heavy methodologies cannot serve this new clientele. So what software development model matches startup needs? APP TRAIL How ideas move out of the drawing board onto the app store
  • 16. 16 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE Agile-Lean Model: Development that sparks Discoveries The startup clientele is a mixed package, a combination of creative abundance on one side and resource crunch on the other. Also, a startup idea is usually hazy atleast on some of the details. Understandably so, given that founders are not always experts in the particular domain or market. In such cases, the optimum product-market fit is not clear at the outset and is usually achieved after a few iterations. The development process has to aid this discovery. Agile-lean, devOps and cloud computing paradigms are best suited to such dynamic development contexts. Where it begins It begins with the quest to build the ‘Right Product’ The Premise One that delights customers One that goes Viral One that is sticky One that finds early market adoption People don’t know what they want until you show it to them. -Steve Jobs ”“
  • 17. 17 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE Before you give wings to your startup dreams, test your idea. Product validation through market analysis and concept testing is crucial. This is because even the most brilliant ideas are not immune to the vagaries of the market. Solving the Outsourcing Dilemma: End-to-End Product Development Does it mean cost concerns weigh higher than quality for most enterprises and startups? It’s never that simple. True, outsourcing is a significant cost and time saver. But, attracting the best IT talent with all the different skill sets required for end-to-end product develop- ment is not easy or necessary. In a world where technology and skills become obsolete quickly, it is not prudent to spend time building teams whose skills may not serve you for long. It is easier to hire a firm providing end-to-end product development services. This is why OPD will continue to shine. Why end-to-end product development? An integrated design and development model where the development partner is brought onboard early on helps in clear understanding of the business objectives as well as user goals. This solves the quality issues and communication headaches inherent in outsourcing model.
  • 18. 18 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE ‘New’ Engagement models: Emphasize Collaboration and Co-Creation • Engaging with clients and users to identify needs • Defining product specifications • Building mockups and prototypes to test user experience ‘New’ Software development methodologies Dedicated cross-functional teams to work on a client’s product through its entire lifecycle • Each team = Requisite ‘Technical skills’ + ‘Management skills’ for product development Now to the stages… Super Teams: ‘Empowered’ + ‘Agile-Lean’ COUNTDOWN TO LIVE APP Now let’s look at the stages expected in a general app building exercise. We are outlining a scenario where the development partner is brought onboard for end-to-end product development. It may well be the case, that the client has in-house capabilities for taking up some of these stages independently. In which case, the client may only require limited application development and deployment services. But bringing the development team into the loop early can result in time and cost savings, as we already pointed out earlier.
  • 19. 19 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE Stage 1: Discovery Workshops This stage usually brings the client team and the vendor together for intense brainstorming sessions. All the requirements are identified. Once the feature set is identified, a product roadmap is built. The roadmap unifies the features and release schedules onto a single timeline. This visual product roadmap is communicated to all key stakeholders. Developers and testers must be made a part of planning, because their input will help identify technical limitations and opportunities. Deliverables: • Requirement Book – Functional and non-functional requirements • User stories • Clarification of concept • Project Guidelines • API Specification • Visual Product Roadmap Brainstorming sessions throw up a lot of good ideas. The first release is usually a minimum viable product (MVP) which heroes the core value of the product. But capturing ideas in a roadmap would be a brilliant move. This will guide future product enhancements. More realistic Project estimates. Agile methods push for an early release of the MVP. This helps in generating real user feedback and ensures that money and time are spent on developing right set of features in future releases.
  • 20. 20 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE A user story is a tool used to capture a description of a software feature from an end-user perspective. The user story describes the type of user, what they want and why. A user story helps to create a simplified description of a requirement. The development team's job is to take care of how to develop the code that will satisfy the requirements of the user story. Stage 2: Wireframing 101: Wireframes/Mockups/Prototypes A great User Experience (UX) is the sin qua non for present day apps. A wireframe conveys the key features, their structure and the basic UI of the final product. It tries to create a clear visual memory of the product design in the minds of key stakeholders. Why mock ups: Here’s your answer: When done right, wire-framing can act as an aid to communication. If the product has a rapid release schedule, it will help development teams visual- ize the tasks ahead. Due to their non-interactive nature wireframes are not used in testing. But they can still provide initial feedback on UI design and help correct obvious errors saving time. A wireframe is worth a 1000 spreadsheets You can fix it now on the drafting board with an eraser or you can fix it later on the construction site with a sledge hammer.
  • 21. 21 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE Mockups are different from wireframes. They are static visual representations of the final product design. They are emerging as the alternative to good old requirement books. Mockups are used to generate early stakeholder buy-in, as well as to review the visual design. Balsamiq is a software tool that is great for creating semi-functional mockups that can be used in demos and usability tests. Prototypes are a progression over wireframes and mockups. They are interactive and hence costlier. Prototypes are semi-functional and are used in user testing. Translating ideas into rapid prototypes using HTML/CSS and Angular.js will help clients visualize the final prod- uct. User testing of prototypes will also flag design and experience issues. Deliverables: • Wireframes/Mockups/Prototype Stage 3: Decoding Design, Specifying Tests Once the final wireframes are ready, stakeholders review if the design meets the core functional requirements. Sometimes, a few alternatives of the selected UI design with slight modifications are generated. These are tested later to arrive on the final design. This process is crucial, as too many design iterations post release may harm the product. Writing test plans and specifications is intrinsic in agile methodologies which have develop- ers and testers working in tandem throughout the development process. Defining tests helps clearly communicate the stakeholder expectations to developers. In an agile software development framework, acceptance tests are often akin to detailed requirement specifica- tions. Deliverables: • UI designs • Framing of acceptance tests
  • 22. 22 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE Stage 4: Development and Testing Now the actual fun begins. The code goes into production. User stories are converted to code. Once the short pieces of code are developed they are subject to unit testing. The pieces of code are then integrated and the entire thematic module is tested together. Here, different versions of the code, with slight modifications can be tested together. A/B testing is useful in getting the optimal product market fit. Deliverables: • Application code • Unit testing • A/B testing Stage 5: User Acceptance Testing (UAT) & Quality Checks Once you are ready with a functional application, its crunch time. Before it is launched to the world a final test of the app by real end users is recommended. An alpha or beta release which is tested by a select group of end users can help identify issues that have been overlooked or were undiscovered. UATs need to be diverse by default – the app needs to be tested on different devices by diverse sets of users to throw up some real insights. Google App Engine has in-built ability to support A/B testing. Multiple versions of application can be run in parallel and user response is gauged through cookies. Different versions usually involve subtle modifications to the UI.
  • 23. 23 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE The Pivot to Market Success User Acceptance tests help in determining if the application has achieved Product market Fit (PMF). The product features are tweaked until it reaches the PMF. This practice of iterating the product until it achieves PMF is called Pivot. Integration with third party applications like Intercom, Mouseflow help in gaining insights on which product features or functional flows are finding traction and those that are not. Build or Buy? Custom Solutions are not popular anymore, most enterprises are licensing third-party off-the-shelf solutions to meet their business needs or for enhancing their product experi- ence. ‘Jazz Up’ Customer Experience Integrations help small startups leverage the power of IT to meet complex business goals and to enhance customer experiences. Integration of Google cloud platform services with third party solutions is easy and rewarding. For example, consider Intercom the customer success solution. Intercom exposes a rich REST API for interacting with its services; this can be integrated with a Google App Engine hosted application. Google App Engine allows easy integration with third party solutions
  • 24. 24 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE How you can use the Intercom REST API: 1. To pull data from it and use it for analytic purposes 2. To push data to it, Data that can enrich the service for customers To generate sophisticated business or market intelligence on your product, all you need to do is write a few extra lines of code. This code will extract data from Intercom and load it to Google’s Big Query service. Big Query then uses its analytics might to start generating actionable insights from the data. Must-have 3rd party integrations • Payment gateway integration (paypal, braintree, stripe) • User Guides (inline manual, walkme) • email communication (send grid, mandrilll) • sms and call integration (twilio) • Customer adoption and communication (Intercom) Deliverables: • A Alpha/Beta Version of App • User Feedback • Integration testing with 3rd party solutions • Performance testing
  • 25. 25 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE Google App Engine offers infinite scalability at industry leading prices Stage 6: Deployment and Support Post deployment performance is crucial to a products market success. Only a lucky few products go viral, and you don’t want your servers to crash if you happen to be the lucky one. Imagine going down the annals of app history as a one-day wonder. So, redundancy and scalability have to built into the design. Product performance relies on proper provi- sioning and good server architecture. Network performance tests and traffic handling tests are conducted on the app before it goes live. Network issues both during testing and after launch must be resolved promptly through a robust ticketing system. Deliverables: • Deployment and Support Documentation • Full integration with third party solutions • Final Application The Continuous delivery Paradigm What we saw was one full cycle of product development. The current paradigm in software development is geared towards an extended lifecycle for product development. Patches, upgrades and multiple releases are the new norm. This necessitates that the development partnership continue post release. Companies stand to gain from such a scenario, as they • Get expert maintenance support over the life of the product • Can support continuous releases • Ensure the product is fine-tuned to changes in market
  • 26. 26 | BUILDING A PRODUCT ON THE APP ENGINE You have clocked more miles on your product development journey. With this you have learnt: How products get built. The methodologies, the stages and best practices involved in developing products for our times. But we have so far held back on discussing the philosophy that ties all of this together. Great products tap on the creative geniuses of many minds, tied together by a guiding philosophy. Seth Godin nailed the crux of the philosophy that must propel product devel- opment when he said “Don’t find customers for your products; find products for your customers ”Designing a product is designing a relationship with your customers. Pick the right team! For, together you must build a beautiful relationship with your audience.
