SDK (Software Development Kit)

Software development kit is leveraged to access, connect and integrated both native and remote services, the SDK is a collection of dev tools , libraries, dependencies and servers. By leveraging SDK and IDE the developer can build platform specific applications and protocol specific apps. APIs can be integrated via SDKs.

SDK provides the compiler, interpreter, debugger, runtime, software framework and servers to develop, test and run application in cloud native and local environments.

SDK types: on-premise | on cloud | hybrid model.

SDK Formats : Android App development will require, JAVA development Kit (JDK) which is a SDK, the AWS Cloud services are integrated via AWS SDK. API and micro-services can also be connected and integrated via SDK .

SDK libraries, resources and interfaces are leveraged to accommodate developer friendly approach, SDK are leveraged to access, operate and integrated services across cloud and no-cloud server environment (local device, on prem). SDK is in software format, in case of proprietary software development the licensing is subjected to the compliance and legal department.

Android mobile application implement 16-17 SDK. Some popular SDK are:

  • IOS SDK
  • Java development kit
  • Java Service development kit
  • MS windows SDK
  • window App SDK
  • Xbox development kit
IOS app development will require IOS SDK.
Window app dev will require .net framework SDK.

NOTE: If malicious SDK is integrated then the system software and hardware level can be compromised, as the kernel file can be accessed via malicious SDK. Only install SDKs from trusted vendors and sources.

SDK is a fit for SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT and SOFTWARE INTEGRATION based tasks. Both GPL, LGPL license are compatible with many SDK projects.
