With skilled software developers in short supply, enterprises are turning to artificial intelligence (AI) and lowcode/no-code (LCNC) platforms to get their work done quickly while reducing development costs. Lowcode software development uses a platform that requires minimal coding to create software. Low-code platforms are suitable for rapid application development and automating business processes. No-code software development provides an interface with drag-and-drop functionality to develop applications from various templates and components of pre-programmed software. This helps to create an application without coding. Nocode platforms are suitable for small businesses and offer quick solutions.
Gartner predicts that by 2026, developers outside formal IT departments will account for at least 80% of the user base for low-code development tools, up from 60% in 2021. According to IDC, sales of nocode platforms will grow at an annual rate of 13.9% through 2026, with that of low-code platforms growing at 14.1% over the same period.
A market research study published by P&S Intelligence states that the global low-code market will witness a 31.1% CAGR between 2020 and 2030 to reach US$ 187 billion by 2030.
Key characteristics of LCNC platforms LCNC platforms enable developers to quickly build applications by leveraging a library of pre-built components, such as user interfaces, databases, and APIs. Check Figure 1 for the key characteristics of these platforms.
Some of the most common characteristics are:
Accelerated application development and a drag-and-drop interface, which allows creation of applications by using flow charts and other diagrams. These platforms democratise development as there is no need of experience and training to build effective custom apps.
Reusable code functionality, which saves time as users don’t need to re-create core components.

Helgrind: Detecting Synchronisation Issues in Multithreaded Programs
Let's explore how Helgrind can be used to detect and debug multithreading issues with the help of a multithreaded C program.
The Perfect Process of Booting a PC
Booting a PC seems as simple as eating a cake. But are you aware of all that goes on behind-the-scenes to bake a delicious cake or seamlessly boot a PC?
Exploring eBPF and its Integration with Kubernetes
eBPF, a game-changing technology that extends the capabilities of the Linux kernel, offers significant advantages for Kubernetes networking. It also greatly improves Kubernetes observability by capturing detailed telemetry data directly from the kernel. Read on to find out how its integration with Kubernetes has immense benefits.
Deploying Generative AI LLMs on Docker
Built on massive datasets, large language models or LLMS are closely associated with generative Al. Integrating these models with Docker has quite a few advantages.
Containerisation: The Cornerstone of Multi-Cloud and Hybrid Cloud Success
Open source containerisation software provides the flexibility, cost-effectiveness, and community support needed to build and manage complex multi-cloud and hybrid cloud environments. By leveraging this software, businesses can unlock the full potential of multicloud and hybrid cloud architectures while minimising vendor lock-in risks.
From Virtual Machines to Docker Containers: The Evolution of Software Development

India's Leap in Supercomputing: Innovating for Tomorrow
As India strides towards self-sufficiency in supercomputing, embracing this evolution isn't just an option-it is pivotal for global competitiveness and technological leadership.
SageMath: A Quick Introduction to Cybersecurity
In the previous articles in this SageMath series, we delved into graph theory and explored its applications using SageMath. In this seventh article in the series, it is time to shift our focus to another crucial subfield of computer science: cybersecurity and cryptography.
Efficient Prompt Engineering: Getting the Right Answers
OpenAl's GPT-3 and GPT-4 are powerful tools that can generate human-like text, answer questions, and provide insights. However, the quality of these outputs depends heavily on how you frame the input, or prompt. Efficient prompt engineering ensures you get the right answers by designing inputs that guide the AI towards relevant, clear, and useful responses. Let's find out how to craft effective prompts with examples.
Analysing Linus Torvald's Critique of Docker
This article looks at Docker's security flaws, particularly its shared-kernel model, and contrasts it with traditional VMs for better isolation. It discusses Linus Torvalds' concerns, explores mitigation techniques, and proposes a roadmap for building a more secure containerisation platform using hardware-assisted virtualisation, true isolation, and a robust orchestration layer.
