Defensive Programming Approach - A developer must have this skill


Defensive programming is a form of defensive design intended to ensure the continuing function of a piece of software under unforeseen circumstances. Defensive programming practices are often used where high availability, safety or security is needed — Wikipedia

Defensive programming techniques are used especially when a piece of software could be misused mischievously or inadvertently to catastrophic effect.

# Defensive programming is an approach to improve software and source code, in terms of:
# General quality – reducing the number of software bugs and problems.
# Making the source code comprehensible – the source code should be readable and understandable so it is approved in a code audit.
# Making the software behave in a predictable manner despite unexpected inputs or user actions

Key points in order to achieve a Defensive Programming approach.These are as follows.
1.Don’t trust developers


2.Never trust user input


3.Use database abstraction


4.Don’t reinvent the wheel


5.Write SOLID code


6.Write tests

You can import data from a variety of sources, with AI-powered indexing that can infer and extract searchable content from non-text sources. You decide what data is imported into the index, and set up indexers to pull that data into it, or push JSON formatted documents manually. Azure Cognitive Search also lets you query search indexes. The results contain only your data, which can include text inferred or extracted from images, or new entities and key phrases detection through text analytics. It's a Platform as a Service (PaaS) so Microsoft manages the infrastructure and availability, allowing your organization to benefit without the need to purchase or manage additional hardware resources.
