The information technology industry, one of the fastest growing during the past decade and fastest developing from the perspective of pure innovation, has a lexicon all its own that rivals even the healthcare industry in its ability to confuse the layperson. IntegriSource offers IT staffing services to clients throughout the nation and, in an attempt to simplify this sometimes confusing IT vocabulary, provides this small list of technology-related terms and definitions. Updates will occur frequently, though likely not as often as new technologies are developed, updated or even deprecated.
