Top Trends That Are Influencing Digital Transformation For 2023 And Beyond

Image
Digital transformation is happening in every industry, no matter the size of an organization. Whether you are a small or large business, your customers expect you to deliver on their digital expectations and needs. The trick is how do you keep up with technology trends and innovations? In this article we will explore some of the top trends that are influencing digital transformation for 2023 and beyond. No-code/Lo-Code Platforms Fizzle While it is possible that organizations continue to adopt and use these types of platforms, they will most certainly find that they have limitations and may not be able to support the full scope of their endeavors and visions. In such cases, organizations may need to consider supplementing their use of no-code and low-code platforms with custom development or other technology solutions. If the choice to supplement and force the usage of no-code/lo-code platforms, then organizations will find the ...

Evolution Of The Remote Procedure Call

Image
In the early days of software development, remote procedure calls (RPCs) were used to allow one computer to execute a procedure on another computer over a network. The RPC model allowed developers to write code as if the procedure was being executed on the local machine, simplifying the process of building distributed systems. Initially, RPCs were implemented using simple http sockets, which allowed for the transmission of data between computers using the HTTP protocol. However, this approach had limitations, as it did not provide a way to define the structure and data types of the transmitted information. To address this issue, developers began using XML to define the structure of the data being transmitted over the network. This allowed for more complex data types to be transmitted, making it possible to build more sophisticated distributed systems. As the use of XML-based RPCs grew, developers started using web services, which...

Lo-Code / No-Code - Where Does It Fit?

Image
There are several factors that organizations should consider when deciding whether to use low-code or no-code platforms like Microsoft's Power Platform or to opt for traditional software development. Size Matters One key factor is the size and complexity of the organization. Smaller organizations may not have the resources or expertise to invest in a full-scale software development project and may therefore prefer to use a low-code or no-code platform to build custom applications. These platforms allegedly offer a more accessible and user-friendly interface for building apps, making it easier for non-technical users to create custom solutions without the need for coding skills. Another factor to consider is the speed at which the organization needs to deploy its solutions. Low-code and no-code platforms claim to offer a much faster development cycle, as they provide pre-built components and templates that can be quickly assembl...
