What is Scale?

Used by companies like Twitter, Netflix, Airbnb, and LinkedIn, Scala is a strong, concise, productive, object-oriented, functional, and high-level language that was created to solve some of Java's shortcomings. The name is a mix of scalable and language highlighting the idea that Scala is a scalable programming tool that allows developers to create flexible products that can expand and accommodate new features and demands.

Still relatively young, the language has gained enormous popularity over the years, leading to growing demand for Scala development services. Scala is applied to a wide variety of use cases, especially in the world of data science. But that's not the only way to enjoy the language

Custom Scala software development

Scala Consulting

Are you wondering how to boost your development and technology efforts, but don't know where to start? Our Scala consultants will help you identify areas for improvement and provide concrete suggestions for solutions that will make your business grow and be even more successful.

Mobile Scala Development

Scala is a great option for mobile development as Java is an official language for Android and Scala can be used wherever Java is used. This is especially true when you are looking for a functional approach to mobile development.

Data Science

One of the main applications of Scala is data science. The language is used for all things big data – data streaming, data processing and data analysis. Scala is widely used in building complex, scalable applications and solving problems in this domain, as well as developing machine learning solutions, which also involve large amounts of data.

Our Scala development process

Discovery

Discovery is the first step in the Scala development process and in any development process. This is a comprehensive procedure that involves collecting information and requirements, learning more about the business, and figuring out the best solution for you. The goal is to identify your needs and determine the best way to proceed. From there, we can establish a timeline, hone the delivery model that works best for you, allocate resources and personnel, and create a complete execution plan.

Development

The development phase is the heart of the Scala process – it's when we actually build your product. Throughout this process, we will keep you informed about our efforts and give you space to ask questions. Development is not a discrete phase because developers will be closely involved at several different stages.

Project

Design typically occurs alongside development in Scala. It’s about defining the user experience and creating a unique design that satisfies the demands of the consumer – the target audience. This goes far beyond the aesthetic appeal of your software and also involves the overall feel of the product or the way the user experiences it.

Test

No Scala development process is complete without quality assurance (QA) testing. This involves thoroughly evaluating all aspects of the software, including — but not limited to — functionality, usability, performance, load capacity, and security. QA engineers will record any issues or bugs found, and developers will fix them so the product works as intended.

Implantation

Once the software has been developed, designed and tested and we have received approval from all stakeholders, we will deploy your product, which means it will be released to users.

What is Scala used for?

Scala is used for data processing, analysis, and engineering, as well as mobile and web application development. It has become an important language in big data and machine learning, allowing organizations to leverage these tools more effectively. There are several other ways to use Scala as well.

Advantages of Scala

Scala was created to improve Java, specifically to address many of the overly restrictive or difficult aspects of the language. This means that Scala is a more organized, robust, and productive language than its more experienced counterpart. Once developers learn how to use it, it will be relatively easy to apply it to a variety of projects. Additionally, it runs on the Java Virtual Machine (JVM), which means it applies to projects where Java is traditionally used.

Scala was also designed as a highly scalable and efficient language that adjusts and grows as user needs change. It is less verbose than Java and simplifies the development process.

Furthermore, Scala is safe and its type system is capable of identifying bugs during compile time. It provides a better user experience than Java and is also more cost-effective than the latter.

Disadvantages of Scala

That's not to say that Scala doesn't have disadvantages. As with any other programming language, Scala is far from perfect. For example, the structure of the language is complex and can be difficult for developers to learn. In fact, its learning curve is steeper than some other comparable languages.

Scala also has a relatively small ecosystem, as it is on the newer side. There are fewer libraries, frameworks, and other development tools. It also does not have compatibility with libraries from many other languages.
