Getting Started with Micro-Applications
Welcome to the world of micro-applications! This guide will help you understand the basics and get started with your first implementation.
What Are Micro-Applications?
Micro-applications are small, focused software solutions that solve one specific business problem exceptionally well. Unlike monolithic enterprise software, micro-applications:
- Focus on a single function
- Deploy quickly (weeks, not months)
- Integrate easily with existing systems
- Cost significantly less than traditional solutions
Why Choose Micro-Applications?
Speed: Get working software in 4-6 weeks instead of 6-12 months.
Cost: Fixed pricing of $25K vs. open-ended enterprise projects.
Quality: Purpose-built solutions that fit your exact needs.
Risk: Lower risk due to smaller scope and faster delivery.
Getting Started
- Identify a Pain Point: Choose one specific process that's causing problems
- Define Success: What would "perfect" look like for this one process?
- Start Small: Begin with the most critical functionality
- Expand Gradually: Add related features over time
