What are the translations of these IT-related terms: app, service, consulting?

Chinese Language Asked by Drux on November 23, 2021

What are the right translations of these IT-related terms into (simplified) Chinese:

  • app (as in iOS apps)
  • service (as in application service)
  • consulting (as in IT consulting)

Is there a reliable dictionary that includes such specialized contemporary terminology?

  • App - colloquially, this is often simply "APP" (frequently capitalized and pronounced /eɪpiːˈpiː/, not /æp/, despite its etymology). 应用[程序] is used too, though.
  • Service - 服务 or 业务. Depends somewhat on the situation, but in the extremely broad sense the word is often used, 业务 often makes more sense. However, "microservice" is 微服务.
  • Consulting - 咨询 or 顾问. Usually the former to describe companies and the latter to describe individual professionals, though there's some overlap (and sometimes used together as 咨询顾问).
