It is clear that, as technology continues to mature and expand, the integration of emerging technologies such as Artificial intelligence, machine learning and biometrics is becoming essential on companies’ path to a digital future.
In this transition the Low-Code plays a key role, since, although traditional development methods and the role of IT teams will never disappear, it will be possible to acquire these technologies quickly, safely and efficiently as these teams concentrate in higher-level tasks.
In fact, Gartner predicts that by 2025, 70% of applications developed by companies will use Low-Code or No-Code technology, compared to less than 25% in 2020. This is because this technology allows companies to create web and mobile applications using processes and templates specific to your industry without the need to create software from scratch, saving essential runtime.
Today, the adoption of Low-Code platforms helps eliminate common bottlenecks in companies with little technological experience or with IT departments under immense burdens of responsibility. In addition, it has been a great ally for companies in times where there is a shortage of available IT talents and programmers.
HR professionals believe that finding qualified developers is one of the great challenges they are facing, a problem that will be exacerbated as companies seek to fill new technology roles and expand digital capabilities. As a result, they are using plataformas Low-Code to support developers, allowing them to work on multiple projects at the same time and giving them the opportunity to focus on other less mechanical goals such as producing software that is in line with business and user needs.
The code of tomorrow, where does it go?
As the Low-Code continues to mature and rise to become a common enterprise-level tool, new options are bound to emerge. Today it has become an increasingly complex technology that seeks to integrate more industry standards in terms of security and comprehensive functionality.
In addition, looking to the future and as Low-Code platforms go beyond their function as beta technology, it is seeking to incorporate and connect with technology from specialized sectors, including facial recognition, biometrics, artificial intelligence, machine learning, augmented reality and virtual reality. And it is that these emerging technologies are increasingly relevant and necessary for modern companies seeking to obtain a competitive advantage.
In fact, today, organizations that do not take advantage of progress in fields such as artificial intelligence, open banking and other currently available accelerators, will risk being left behind or even disappearing from the market. In this way, Low-Code platforms can help ensure that companies remain agile and dynamic by reducing lead times, limiting errors with software production cycles, and incorporating these emerging technologies. While the number of corporations turning to these platforms to rapidly develop new digital solutions that allow them to stay aligned with consumer needs continues to grow, Low-Code technology has only just begun to demonstrate its potential, and its adoption is expected. and multiple applications of use continue to increase.
The pandemic has not only accelerated the demands for technology services, it has also made evident the need for the rapid development of applications and digital channels to satisfy more and more everyday tasks online. Faced with this scenario, experts predict that this behavior will continue even after the health situation has ended, which is why Low-Code is essential for a rapid digital transformation.
