Ready for Digitization: Decision-Making Model for Low Code Development Platform Selection
摘要
In the ongoing digitalization process, low-code development platforms could be seen as promising solutions to help enterprises create their business applications in a short time . This is due to the use of different approaches such as visual modeling, model-driven development, rapid application development, and automatic code generation. On the market, there are plenty of vendors of low-code development platforms that propose a variety of products with similar parameters. In this regard, a mathematical model for evaluation and selection is proposed. This model considers three main groups of low-code development platforms assessment criteria. A characteristic feature of the model is that each group can be considered with a different degree of importance when forming the final decision. The applicability of the formulated decision-making model is demonstrated in a real example in the evaluation of five platforms according to 23 criteria distributed into 3 groups. The obtained results convincingly show the applicability of the proposed decision-making model in the assessment and evaluation of low-code development platforms.
