Application Lifecycle Management (ALM)

Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) refers to the process of managing the entire life of a software application from initial concept through development, deployment, maintenance, and eventual retirement. It involves coordinating and overseeing all aspects, including planning, design, testing, and updates, ensuring that the application meets user needs and remains relevant over time. ALM encompasses tools and practices that help teams track progress, collaborate effectively, and address any issues that arise, ultimately improving the quality and efficiency of software development and management.
