OutSystems 11 Solves Legacy System Gridlock
New Low-Code Platform Release Is a Major Breakthrough for Modernising Legacy Systems and Replacing Large Application Portfolios
SINGAPORE, Sep 27, 2018 - (ACN Newswire) - OutSystems today announced the release of OutSystems 11, the first low-code solution to address one of the biggest issues facing IT leaders today -- legacy system gridlock. Building on their number one, low-code platform for web and mobile apps, OutSystems 11 delivers new advanced capabilities to help organisations modernise legacy systems and replace large application portfolios. "The legacy gridlock problem is huge," said Paulo Rosado, CEO and Founder of OutSystems. "Seventy percent of IT budget dollars are spent maintaining large portfolios of legacy apps, including aging systems and brittle, over-customised ERP and CRM systems. This massive technical debt is a roadblock to business innovation, and it opens the door to disruption by more agile competitors." Traditional options for dealing with legacy debt and gridlock include open-heart surgery on packaged applications or embarking on multi-year custom development projects that add layers of complexity to the codebase. Both options are slow, expensive, and high-risk, and they force IT leaders to make tradeoffs between control, speed, and simplicity. OutSystems 11 eliminates these problems with six new capabilities never before available in a low-code platform. 1. Modern microservices architecture plus impact analysis delivers unbreakable builds even with huge app portfolios - OutSystems 11 will eliminate hours spent validating and fixing the issues with complex sets of apps and large systems. In-depth impact analysis of entire systems before release provides advance warning so builds don't break. Teams are more agile, safely creating and changing reusable services and applications fast and at scale.
2. Out-of-the-box monitoring gives real-time visibility into large portfolios of interconnected apps and services - Take the pulse of an entire app portfolio, identifying potential problem areas before they impact the health of other systems, including SaaS and external legacy systems. Embedded monitoring, out-of-the-box analytics, and built-in dashboards show where or why a given app or service is not performing as designed.
3. Continuous delivery team features to manage many developers working in the same platform - Control who can create and manage services, and who can consume them, using a full entitlement model that extends to all apps and services. Organisations can structure themselves based on delivery streams for each business area that work in parallel.
4. Container support standardises operations and portability - Deploy apps and services to leading container-as-a-service and platform-as-a-service providers - including Amazon, ECS, Azure Container Service, Pivot PAS and on-premises Docker container environments - for faster, leaner deployment and increased scalability, resilience, and portability.
5. New UI Framework to deliver beautiful user experiences (UX) quickly without specialised design resources - Delivering apps with consistent, modern user interfaces is now frictionless for development teams. A new UI framework makes it easy to serve up experiences at scale across multiple delivery streams while ensuring brand and UX consistency. Developers can access screen templates and patterns derived from analysing leading consumer apps directly from the OutSystems visual editor and customise, extend, and reuse them as needed.
6. Advanced security features protect entire app portfolios, from development to deployment and beyond - Scale the security of systems and apps beyond the traditional boundaries of IT with a platform designed for security. Automated risk assessments, granular access controls, and activity monitoring supplement manual processes and provide the necessary visibility and due diligence required of multi-experience development platforms. OutSystems 11 allows organisations to tackle their legacy applications in a different way that fosters agility over time and removes legacy debt from the equation. It also simplifies the transition to a completely new operating model where a mesh of services supports independent delivery lines on top of core business functions, all aligned with the business needs. The OutSystems 11 launch in the region supports the growing appetite for low-code development platforms across Asia Pacific. According to OutSystems State of Application Development 2018, 34 percent of Asia Pacific organisations are already using a low-code platform, with 9 percent about to start their implementation. "Delivering instantaneous user experiences should be at the heart of every organisation's digital transformation journey. In the face of legacy gridlock, an increasing number of organisations across Asia Pacific are realising the potential of low-code development platforms in driving agility and accelerating application development. Committed to enhancing organisations' software development capabilities, OutSystems is leading the low-code revolution, allowing companies to respond quickly and deliver applications on time," said Mark Weaser, Vice President, Asia-Pacific at OutSystems. "We're on a mission to change the way enterprises develop all their applications," said Paulo Rosado, OutSystems CEO. "Our launch of OutSystems 10 in 2016 disrupted the mobile app development market, so much so that Gartner now rates us as a market leader. Now, for the first time, there is a low-code technology able to change the economics of building large core systems and their supporting apps and services, instead of buying and endlessly customising commercially available systems to make them fit." This new platform launch comes on the heels of a US$360 million funding round for OutSystems from KKR and Goldman Sachs that valued the company at well over US$1 billion.
