Low-code Digital Experience Platform – A Liferay Perspective

With the pace of digital transformation increasing post Covid, the enterprises are now demanding faster release schedules, personalized customer experience and a greater need to reinvent how organizations operate. The term low-code development platform has been steadily gaining traction in the business world and according to Gartner, low-code will be responsible for more than 65{c5773042cc2267ba318b7edac58457c48a69f5007a9f36fd44d1ffebbd8faec6} of application development activity by 2024 and the pressure to deliver digital solutions to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic has only accelerated this adoption.

Low code is a term given to platforms that can help users rapidly build and deploy custom applications with less coding than traditional development. It breaks the traditional silos of business and IT to promote continuous collaboration. Increased business demand for digital transformation platforms and a shortage of skilled developers have propelled the adoption of low-code development platforms to the forefront. The ability to build and deploy apps quickly and efficiently can be a game-changer in the current environment.

COVID showed us that a low code platform can help organizations adapt to massive disruption by quickly combining human and digital labor in the same workflow. This is what makes low-code essential to surviving and thriving in the COVID new normal. Low code digital experience platforms offer business user empowerment to help deliver successful digital transformation projects, with less reliance on digital expertise and IT teams.
