href="https://www.couchbase.com/resources/concepts/cloud-deployment-models/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">deploy applications</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. In addition to saving time and money, it ensures that developers don鈥檛 have to rely solely on coding on their local machine and hope for the best when everything is finally pushed to production. Cloud computing has become such a staple in modern computing that </span><a href="https://www.gartner.com/en/newsroom/press-releases/2023-11-29-gartner-says-cloud-will-become-a-business-necessity-by-2028"><span style="font-weight: 400;">it鈥檚 predicted to become a business necessity by 2028</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">. Continue reading to learn why the adoption of cloud computing is beneficial and why it鈥檒l change and enhance software development.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">What is cloud development?</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cloud development refers to the process of creating, testing, and deploying applications in the cloud. These applications are designed to be scalable, flexible, and run on any device with an internet connection.聽</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cloud computing usage has surged because it maximizes operational efficiency while not requiring massive hardware investment. A large part of your infrastructure, including hardware, can be </span><a href="https://www.couchbase.com/blog/managed-cloud-services/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">managed by a third-party provider like Amazon Web Services (AWS)</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, saving time and ultimately cutting costs.</span></p> <h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">What is a cloud development environment (CDE)?</span></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A cloud development environment (CDE) is an integrated, hosted set of tools and cloud-based services for writing, testing, and debugging code. You can think of it as a local </span><a href="https://www.couchbase.com/resources/concepts/development-environment/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">integrated development environment (IDE)</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> supercharged with cloud capabilities. Whether working on a simple application or a </span><a href="https://www.couchbase.com/blog/distributed-applications/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">complex distributed system</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, a CDE puts everything at your fingertips, from source code and version control to continuous integration and continuous delivery pipelines (CI/CD).</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Imagine that you鈥檙e working on a microservices-based application. Using a CDE, you can fire up </span><a href="https://www.couchbase.com/blog/pod-vs-container/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">multiple containers</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> or virtual machines (VMs) to emulate the system, test any integrations, and debug in real time. This task would be nearly impossible or at least hard to replicate on a single developer’s machine.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">There are many CDE vendors to choose from and many self-hosted environments you can manage yourself. Platforms like </span><a href="https://github.com/coder/coder"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Coder</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> are a viable alternative to hosted services like Gitpod and GitHub Codespaces.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">How does cloud development work?</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cloud development requires access to a web-based or client-based remote environment, which is pre-configured to have the tools, libraries, and dependencies necessary for development. The code is usually stored in a remote repository, where real-time changes are synchronized, preferably via a Git-based version control system (VCS). The build process, testing, and deployments happen in the cloud. The service offloads this from the local hardware onto the cloud using powerful compute resources that can scale on demand.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For example, you may be working on a web application and utilizing something like </span><a href="https://github.com/features/codespaces"><span style="font-weight: 400;">GitHub Codespaces</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;"> or </span><a href="https://www.gitpod.io/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Gitpod</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">, which places a full development environment in the cloud. This capability allows you to test your application against different configurations鈥攎uch the same as locally鈥攁nd simply change the environment settings. In an environment like GitHub, you can start multiple codespaces for a single codebase and work in parallel on different features.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Local development vs. cloud development</span></h2> <h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Resource availability</span></h3> <table> <tbody> <tr> <td><b>Aspect</b></td> <td><b>Local Development</b></td> <td><b>Cloud Development</b></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Compute Power</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Limited by local machine specifications</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Virtually unlimited, scalable on demand</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Storage</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Limited, requires manual management</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Scalable, often includes automated backups</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Environment Setup</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Time-consuming, manual configuration</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Preconfigured, quick setup</span></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Collaboration</span></h3> <table> <thead> <tr> <th><b>Aspect</b></th> <th><b>Local Development</b></th> <th><b>Cloud Development</b></th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Code Sharing</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Requires manual syncing, potential conflicts</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Real-time collaboration, easy version control</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Team Access</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Limited to network constraints</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Accessible from anywhere with internet</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Debugging</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Often local and isolated</span></td> <td><span style="font-weight: 400;">Shared environments for team debugging</span></td> </tr> </tbody> </table> <h3><span style="font-weight: 400;">Scalability and flexibility</span></h3> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In the case of a local development environment, most of the time, you鈥檙e limited by your machine’s hardware.

On the other hand, </span><a href="https://www.couchbase.com/resources/concepts/scalability-in-cloud-computing/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">cloud development environments provide unlimited scalability</span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">.
