Low-code with complete automation delivers faster and more
impactful business value
McLEAN, Va., May 11, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Appian (NASDAQ:
APPN) today unveiled the latest version of the Appian Low-code
Automation Platform. The new release expands the boundaries of the
low-code industry with the introduction of low-code data, a new
code-free approach to unifying enterprise data. The latest version
of Appian also features enhanced AI-driven Intelligent Document
Processing (IDP), new design guidance and developer collaboration
features, and enhanced DevSecOps capabilities.
Appian delivers complete automation, orchestrating people,
existing systems, data, bots, and AI in a single workflow. Complete
automation fuels enterprise-wide workflows to unlock material
business results.
Matt Richard, CIO at Laborers
International Union of North
America (LiUNA), a 500,000-member union of workers in
construction, postal, and other industries, said, "Appian strips
away the complexities of working with the most advanced automation
technologies so we can focus on making our member experience the
best it can be. We were able to build our first Appian RPA [robotic
process automation] process in just four days, integrated with our
people processes and Appian AI. Simplifying data design is going to
have a huge impact for us so I am looking forward to the new
release with low-code data."
The new platform enhancements support the Appian Guarantee,
which aims to deliver a customer's first project live in just eight
weeks with a flat services fee. New capabilities in the latest
version of the Appian platform include:
- Low-code Data: Building low-code apps is simple and
visual, but integrating data still requires a host of database
skills -- until now. Appian makes integrating data as easy as
building apps. Source data from anywhere, without needing to
migrate it. Visually combine, extend, and model relationships
between varied data sources, and automatically optimize data sets
for performance, without coding or database programming.
- IDP: Appian Intelligent Document Processing (IDP)
delivers massive efficiency gains via straight-through processing
of large volumes of unstructured data. IDP now features native
Optical Character Recognition (OCR) to securely extract data from
documents without third-party software or services. In combination
with the Appian native, pre-trained, and constantly-learning AI
models, IDP can eliminate manual processing in any workflow.
- Low-code RPA: Appian RPA centrally manages and monitors
Appian bots, 3rd party bots, and end-to-end processes to increase
scale and performance. Appian customers can now automate tasks even
faster with new Low-code RPA Windows actions and additional new
libraries of actions that can be downloaded directly from the
Appian AppMarket.
- Low-code Apps: Appian lets organizations build and
change apps and automations 10x faster through visual development
that's as simple as drawing a flowchart. New developer
collaboration capabilities simplify co-creation of apps, while
enhanced design guidance optimizes app performance, security, and
testing. The result is a big boost in developer productivity.
- Low-code DevSecOps: In Appian, everything is built to
deliver enterprise-grade trust. From unmatched security
certifications to comprehensive low-code DevSecOps, Appian helps
customers innovate, compete, and grow. The new release continues to
enhance simplified movement of software packages between
development, test, and production environments with one-click
compare and deploy to accelerate secure, governed deployments.
The latest version of the Appian Low-code Automation Platform
will be generally available in June
2021. For a free trial of the platform, go to
