Tencent Cloud Widget was selected as the "Analysis Report on the Status of China's Low Code Platform Market in 2021" by the international authoritative research institution Forrester

On November 12, Forrester, a global authoritative research institution and the proponent of the "low-code" concept, released the "The State Of Low-Code Platforms In China" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report"), the report Investigated more than 20 mainstream companies in the industry, including Tencent, Alibaba, Baidu, Huawei, Microsoft, Qingliu, Kingdee, UFIDA, Fanruan, etc., and deeply analyzed the status quo of China's low-code market for reference by companies in various industries. Among them, Tencent Cloud's low-code platform was selected in the report, and it provided a representative enterprise application practice case.

The "Public Cloud Service Provides Low-Code Products Driven by Cloud Ecosystem" in the report mentioned: "Tencent's WeChat platform uses the Serverless architecture to support ultra-large-scale workloads and natively supports the development of " 1619cad9b91ac0. In addition, Sichuan Province chose Tencent Cloud to build a low code and only spent half of the labor cost of the traditional development method, and developed a provincial-level epidemic prevention and control health code platform (small program) in more than 10 days.

Application of low code is becoming one of the development trends of enterprises

It has been 7 years since Forrester first proposed the concept of "low code" in 2014. At present, the application of low code technology has become a major development trend of domestic enterprises. Leading low-code platforms are helping companies in many verticals accelerate application delivery, save R&D costs, reduce operating costs, and stimulate innovation.

According to Forrester statistics, in the past 18 months, 58% of companies have begun to use low-code platforms and tools for system construction, and 16% of companies plan to introduce low-code platforms. In general, domestic corporate decision makers will give priority to low-code technologies. Digital transformation.

As mentioned in the report, the value brought by low-code platforms to enterprises is mainly provided in three aspects:

• Innovate faster and be more cost-effective;
• Allow business personnel to handle changes;
• Flexible support for business operation dynamics and elastic scaling.

In addition, Forrester pointed out, “Enterprises can use cloud-native architecture low-code platforms to enhance the security, flexibility, scalability, and controllability of applications, so as to help developers manage crises and deal with emergencies more calmly. event". It is worth mentioning that the low-code bottom layer of the micro-layout is based on the cloud development CloudBase used by 2 million+ developers. It naturally has the advantages of serverless architecture, flexible expansion and contraction, and can effectively cope with high-concurrency business scenarios.

low code can effectively help the digital transformation of enterprises

At the 2021 Tencent Digital Ecological Conference · Micro-code special session held on November 4th, Forrester analyst Lu Guannan, who was invited to attend, also pointed out: The current digital transformation of enterprises is a process of reshaping the business model. Forrester believes that companies will advance their digital transformation process from four dimensions: digital experience, digital operation, digital innovation, and digital ecology.

• creates a digital experience: companies use technology to create customer value by improving their delivery results. Proactively predict what customers need, and interact with customers to produce results in a business environment along each step of the customer journey.
• builds digital operations: enterprises organize and operate with customers as the center. Combine metrics in the customer experience process (participation, etc.) with business metrics (customer lifetime value).
• attempts digital innovation: enterprises use emerging technologies to quickly launch new products, and then continue to optimize. Through customer insights to determine increments, and sometimes even breakthrough innovations.
• use digital ecology: enterprises should establish a digital platform to strengthen their core competitiveness. Obtain the best capabilities from partners and achieve growth with less capital or labor investment. low-code recently launched "Weida Ecological Open Plan" , based on the Weida low-code platform, Tencent Cloud will bless the ecosystem partners with three major capabilities-C-end link capabilities, platform support capabilities , Technical support capabilities, to provide ecological partners with a special support plan that integrates C-end link capabilities.

Lu Guannan also pointed out that in the process of implementing digital transformation, process optimization and automation transformation are the key points that enterprises should pay attention to in digital transformation. The implementation of this goal requires the support of an automated architecture. Low-code platforms and tools can accelerate this process.

low code has been widely used in rich industries

Forrester selected a series of low-code application cases of leading companies and organizations in the report.

As the official platform of the Sichuan Provincial Government for the prevention and control of the new crown pneumonia epidemic, the "Sichuan Tianfu Health Link Mini Program" serves approximately 100 million+ users across the province and is one of the most widely used health code products in the country. The peak QPS of Sichuan Tianfu Health Pass reached 40,000 during the peak of returning home during the Spring Festival Transport, and the peak QPS verified by the entire system can support a high concurrency of 60,000+. Based on cloud-native tools such as Tencent Cloud's low-code platform, the R&D team realized the platform operation test and launch in only more than ten days, including not only basic functions such as health code generation, bright code, and code determination, but also family code. , Offline code, location code, health check-in, smart consultation, big data precision prevention and control and other extended functions.

In the future, Tencent Cloud Weibo will continue to cultivate in the industry with low code. On the basis of polishing platform functions, it will cooperate with Tencent Tencent Documents, Tencent Meetings and Enterprise WeChat and other SaaS products and ecological partners to release more Tencent C2B connectivity capabilities.
