Here are the matches for each definition/example with the appropriate phase of the Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC):
- Another word for this phase might be "launch". - Deployment
- Due to the ever-changing nature of technology, applications need to be updated regularly to stay secure and functional. - Maintenance
- Purpose of this phase is to find critical bugs (errors) in the code, as well as any problems with how the software application interacts with other pieces of software. - Testing
- Deciding the hardware that the application will run on, as well as the specific programming languages that the developers will use - Design
- Can be thought of as "beginning with the end in mind". - Requirements Gathering/Analysis
- Begin writing code for the application - Development
