Tech Breakfast: don't worry, we'll fix the software
It all starts with a simple sentence... "Don't worry, we'll fix it with software"
Spoiler alert: it does not work!
In the early stage of a product development lifecycle (IoT or any kind of embedded product: robot, satellite, etc.), we tend to commit too easily to hardware choices, be it for purchasing reasons, existing legacy, vendor relationships or even loudest person preferences.
Oftentimes, the product team is reassured by the thoughts of being able to "fix it" in software later. However the long lasting costs, both technical and financial, of these fixes is widely underestimated most of the time and it does impair the business in the long run.
Let's talk about it!
