Applying Development Experience and Best Practices in a No-Code World

The Enterprise Alchemists

Brian Green, software architect at SnapLogic, joins Dominic and Guy to explore the fascinating convergence of no-code, low-code, and traditional software development strategies. Discover why even the most user-friendly platforms require a solid grasp of software principles to truly excel, especially in large-scale operations. Brian sheds light on how traditional concepts like configuration management, environmental separation, and documentation are essential in optimizing no-code development environments. With a focus on the balance between ease-of-use and the rigor of traditional development practices, this episode promises to equip you with the insights needed to navigate the challenges of scaling in the digital age.
Join us as we uncover how traditional software techniques, such as linting, can revolutionize SnapLogic pipelines for enhanced robustness and efficiency. Learn about the seamless integration of these techniques with source control and how a center of excellence can bridge the gap between traditional and citizen developers. We delve into the potential of low-code/no-code platforms when the right levels of abstraction are understood. From generating test data with tools like SnapGPT to balancing standard engineering practices with unique platform benefits, this episode is packed with insights to elevate your enterprise strategies.
