DevOps Practitioners’ Perceptions of the Low-code Trend
Background: DevOps is currently one of the main trends in software development. Low-Code is also an emerging tendency that, combined with DevOps, may offer significant value to software businesses by improving the process. However, how DevOps practices and low-code are combined is little known.
Aim: This study aims to understand the practitioner’s perspectives on low-code trends.
Method: Twelve interviews with IT professionals who deal with low-code in the context of DevOps were conducted. Then, a grounded theory approach was used to theme the interview quotes into emergent categories.
Results: The main result of this pilot study reveals that such an approach is the most common response to the skill shortages of software professionals.
Conclusion: This study suggests the emergence of DevOps and low-code could significantly contribute to the development of quality products with low-cost and time.
