All IT leaders face challenges of outdated technology. Sometimes it’s time to build or buy a new application. But nowadays, it might make more sense to refresh the new old one. I explore those challenges and provide real client examples where I’ve used low code to help in both cases.
I share my thoughts on the recent acquisition of AppGyver by SAP and how that does or doesn’t relate to their SOLEX partner, Mendix.
The world is battling a war on two fronts: our health is threatened by COVID-19 and our economies have slowed and even stopped in certain sectors. As an App Developer, does my work really matter in such times?
After years of delivering, leading, and coaching leaders in Rapid App Development, I give you my perspective on what skills and profile it takes to be a ‘Great’ RAD Maker.
It’s been 1 year since I first wrote the post, “Extending SAP: Fiori or Mendix?” and a lot has changed. Because of the changes, this older post has gotten a lot of renewed interest so I thought I would take a look at my opinions from a year ago and see if they differ. If you haven’t already, please refer to the original article to have context for this one.
IT should be an expert “SWAT” team with precise skills to tackle the toughest app challenges, not a bottleneck to solving business problems.
Mendix approached me for “Art of the Possible” use cases after my initially accepted use case was put on the back-burner due to COVID-19 shutting down #MendixWorld2020 as originally planned in Rotterdam. What I gave them was a glimpse into the power of Mendix on SAP HANA Cloud! Link provided to the session.
Last week, I along with other leaders in our Rapid App Dev practice joined Mendix in Rotterdam for their #MxWorld2019 event. If you’ve read my other posts, you’ll get a more play by play take on the event and the activities my teammates and I participated in leading up to, during, and after the event. I’ve had a few days to step back and reflect on the event and wanted to share my Top 5 takeaways with you. Let me know if you agree or had a different key takeaway (not surprising if you did as there were many announcements!)
It’s been a few months since I posted anything and I need to change that. So first order of business it to talk about the exciting travel planned for later this week! #MendixWorld2019
As one of Mendix's MVP's, I was blown away by what was presented. Mendix 7's features, meeting in person my colleagues from around the globe, and the time spent with Mendix employees that I don't get to see nearly as often as I'd like. I'm not going to recap the show (press releases will take care of that) but rather share some thoughts about what I experienced.
