Looking back on the development of Dingding Yidah, in the 1.0 stage, Dingding Yidah solved the online and mobile approval process driven by BPM. By the time of 2.0, DingTalk will help users quickly realize business online and mobile office through metadata-driven.

"Now DingTalk is in the 3.0 stage, and it is data-driven to realize ecological online, business integration, and interconnection." Ye Zhouquan further introduced that in the 3.0 stage, DingTalk will eventually realize ecological online, which includes both vendor and online platforms. The downstream ecology also includes the connection ecology of business software.

DingTalk found that after the “cloud and nail integration”, cloud native has actually become the bottom layer of DingTalk's low-code platform. DingTalk can not only become a provider of low-code development tools, but also a provider of cloud infrastructure capabilities.

The deep integration of “Cloud and Nail Integration” has allowed Nail to have a very clear model positioning in the 3.0 stage: through cloud native power, to become an infrastructure provider; through Nail native, to become a linker of application interconnection; through openness and low Code ability, realize that everyone is a developer.
