We shall now develop technology ourselves, instead of just creating applications using them! Enough of BPOs!
The IT revolution that we have witnessed in the last ten years was because we learned the various technologies and created applications using them for varied fields. The need for software at all levels using the latest in the technology was fulfilled by it.
The revolution showed us the rise of Indian IT giants like Infosys, Wipro, TCS etc. But now the saturation has come we have so many engineers that can work on different programming languages and tools but we don't have more than a handful who can actually develop a programming language or develop a tool.
What engineers nowadays do is master a couple of programming languages and try to get job somewhere and do the low end IT programming. The high end the real techie stuff is the core development of the technology from the scratch. Teachers in colleges also focus on how better an engineering student can write code on a programming language or application platform already developed, instead of encouraging them to develop their own platforms or technology.
I recently had long discussions with few highly experienced IT friends of mine who are based at all the IT development headquarters of India i.e. Bangalore, Gurgaon, Noida, Chandigarh, Mumbai and Pune. They all were convinced to this point that, we now in India need Technology Developers not Application Developers. The good points that we concluded were that if we have a significant number of Technology Development initiatives in India we would not create something unique and useful but it would help also help us to keep the technology in our hands and then give it to people to develop applications out of it. This would help us generate even more revenue and much bigger and technologically sound companies will have a long lasting profitable future.
The second thing will be that we will have the control over whole of the IT supply and demand cycle we will only be the manufacturer and we will only be the applications developers so double revenue generating opportunities, isn't that Good! Then we can have more international clientele on our lists than ever before!
Third is that our nation will come with more research papers and we will then not lag behind in the technology development race.
Fourth is that we can achieve ours and our ex-president Dr. A.P.J Abdul Kalam's dream of making India a self dependent Superpower sooner!
So my friends please give this idea of mine a thought and think which way is better for you and all i.e. being an App Developer or a Technology Developer!
Help "You"rselves to create history once more, to start the revolution once more, to mark the new beginning once more!
