GVH Development

Web applications built on sound architecture

GVH Development is a web development team that offers complete start-to-end services, from the first conversation through to launch. Its applications are written on fundamental programming principles so that they rest on a stable architecture. The team says a web application should be fast, optimised and compact, and it adapts to a client's preferred technologies, given its broad experience with the most widely used tools on the market.

Testing and quality before release

Automatic tests check that the functions of an application work as intended before it goes live. The team argues that software development can be more demanding than building a website, and that in skilled hands the result is stable, fast and compact. Where a browser is too limited in resources or functions, the team recommends a different type of software, because a browser-based application can be more exposed to vulnerabilities.

Moving applications to the cloud

The team argues that traditional hosting is no longer a sound choice for applications, since most companies have already moved to the cloud. Cloud platforms offer almost unlimited resources that scale automatically, along with computing and networking, databases, machine learning and storage services, and they cost much less than owning and maintaining physical hardware.

Redesigning applications that perform poorly

Many applications slow down over time because of early design errors. The team begins by asking the client how the application should behave and what its long-term goals are, then proposes an architecture that suits them. The main aim of a redesign is to make the application fast, secure and scalable, the same problem that the team notes large services have had to solve in the past.

DevOps and automated delivery

DevOps is the practice of moving code into production automatically, without manual steps that cause instability and waste time. The team builds the code, runs it through a series of tests, and, once it passes, launches it into production and monitors it.

Project work in human resources, vision and interfaces

Project examples include Capua, a platform where job seekers can find work and companies can outsource their human resources function. The team has also built a recognition system for facial expressions, using a neural network trained on synthetic data generated in Unity and implemented with PyTorch. A website prototype built in Angular for a company's business is another example of its interface work.
