Fear of automation (automation anxiety) has existed since the 16th century. It has been a major driver of negative attitudes toward technology and machines (also known as technophobia). With more sophisticated low-code and no-code development solutions on the horizon, even software developers face bouts of disquietude related to their job security. While low-code solutions have […]
The Future of Low-Code Development
The days when IT teams relied on clunky software development processes and labor-intensive hand-coding to build tangible, reliable and modern applications are coming to an end. With the rise of new automation technology, rapidly rising expectations and demands from innovation-craving customers and end users and a shortage of developers, the software sector has been forced […]
How to Get Started With Low-Code/No-Code
Software development is complex. It can take years of practice to become an experienced developer. But the good news is that you can build many applications without ever learning to code. Low-code/no-code development is the practice of using a visual interface and drag-and-drop elements to build applications for business processes without coding. These types of […]
5 Ways Low-Code Accelerates Digital Transformation
Organizations traditionally have struggled with build-versus-buy decisions when digitizing their internal operations and processes. While the build option offered the benefit of using internal teams or outsourcing to external vendors who could satisfy requirements, the downsides are a long wait, higher costs and the constant change and maintenance applications require. On the other hand, buying […]
EP 20: DevOps for Low-Code – Friend or Foe?
Low-code development has become increasingly popular since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020. Low-code technologies allow organizations to build and customize fully responsive, easy-to-deploy applications with little to no coding. It accelerates digital transformation and empowers citizens developers. In this episode of DevOps Unbound, hosts Alan Shimel and Mitch Ashley are joined by Derya Sousa (Kianda), Andrew Manby (HCL) and Brian ven den Blink (Valori) to discuss the benefits of low code and how it is transforming software development. The video is below and a transcript of the conversation follows.
How No-Code Will Transform DevOps
In the years that low- and no-code development tools have been available, the movement has been slow to gather pace. Until recently, the vast majority of app and workflow development has remained firmly in the hands of professional coders. That is about to change—and fast. Gartner forecasts that the global low-code development technologies market is […]

Could No-Code Enable Everything Ops?
It feels like DevOps principles are permeating every discipline, creating new buzzwords by the minute. DevSecOps. DatabaseOps. SalesOps. FinOps. MarketingOps. This “JargonOps” is clearly encouraged by marketing campaigns (and bloggers, wink, wink). Yet, the phrases do depict a real trend: all industries are getting an efficiency overhaul in the wake of increased automation. As I’ve covered […]
Hybrid Low-Code: The Next Step in App Development
The promise of low-code development has long been the ability to develop business-critical applications by humans with little programming experience. In fact, over the past year or two, the lines between low-code and no-code have become increasingly blurred. Low-code platforms have incorporated more and more functional no-code features to increase the efficiency of the developer […]
