BOSTON, Feb. 11, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Mendix, a Siemens company and the leader in low-code for the enterprise, today announced new and greatly enhanced platform enhancements for Mendix on IBM Cloud to be introduced by Erno Rorive, senior product manager at Mendix, speaking at IBM Think 2019. Mendix is IBM's only enterprise-grade, low-code development platform fully optimized and cloud-natively integrated with IBM Cloud Services. Rorive will highlight Mendix's reengineered cloud-native architecture that now fully supports Kubernetes containerization for the IBM ecosystem. Full support for IBM's Kubernetes implementation provides Mendix low-code app developers with seamless access to the capabilities of Watson, the world's leading provider of AI cognitive services.
"The goal of the Mendix-IBM Alliance is to place the ease of drag-and-drop, low-code application development into the hands of the Enterprise cloud market, leverage Watson's AI capabilities for the largest number of users, and vastly accelerate the time-to-value deployment of business innovation," says Rorive. "The integration of the Mendix platform with IBM Cloud and Watson represents a golden triangle of enterprise-ready solutions that will power the next wave of smart applications to focus the power of AI on vertical industry solutions."
Mendix's platform enhancements for the IBM Cloud infrastructure include:
"The billing platform integration will encourage new users who are seeking an effortless way to evaluate cutting-edge products," says Rorive. "It becomes much more flexible for enterprises to experiment and extend their application landscape with low-code development, at a much lower investment risk than normal."
