Low-code platforms in enterprise IT - between rapid ROI and governance.
Low-code is a method of application development: The solution is created with visual aids via a graphical user interface.
Low-code platforms are software development environments that use visual design tools and methods instead of text-based programming languages. This reduces development effort and allows corresponding apps to be made available more quickly.
The current trend towards «Citizen Developer» is driven by the desire that software can also be created by non-developers. In practice, this is mostly implemented with low-code platforms that work with graphical user interfaces. But with the benefits of faster development come greater risks, such as a lack of governance, questions about maintainability, or accountability for managing low-code applications - and we'll talk about those.
Software engineering for use cases that platforms cannot cover — with audit-grade maturity, IEC 81001 as our standard and more than 30 years of experience in regulated environments.
