In the year 2016, software is a global phenomenon. We may not always think about it when starting a project, but it has been a very revolutionary change over the past decade. Mobile phones and tablets have penetrated every market from Latin and South America to the Middle East to the juggernaut of user-bases: China. Putting our software in the hands of a worldwide audience is a critical component for success.
Not only can our users be found all over the world, but the development teams for our apps can be located anywhere too. Production now is potentially distributed, with developers, reviewers, testers, and other stakeholders not necessarily sharing an office or geo-location.
