SDLC Book Shelf
In reality, the Information Technology business revolves around the Systems Development Lifecycle (SDLC), sometimes
referred to as the Software Development Life cycle. Why? Because computing equipment without software is useless.
Whether it's built within or on top of hardware, it is the software that makes the hardware useful. This
page is categorized to reflect the general phases of SDLC, with obvious overlap, and then some.
All of these links go to Amazon.com.
Why Amazon? I've ordered dozens of books through them and their online order processing system has
ALWAYS WORKED and their 1-Click ordering is very convenient. Jeff Bezos certainly has got some awesome
programmers and systems people :-)
