Statement about the Project
This is the second phase of the collaboration in the RADicalize project. In the first phase, INESC TEC helped us assessing and using the Containers’ technology in the best way possible. In the second phase, we were developing a way to integrate Big Data sources in OutSystems applications, using a low-code approach.
The Big Data sources have massive amounts of data that are poorly structured and that have different formats, which makes them hard to use. With the help of INESC TEC, we created an easy and efficient way to develop enterprise applications that consume these data without the need to write any kind of integration code.
INESC TEC’s know-how in this area allowed us to quickly find a solution that we didn’t know it was possible. The technical expertise of INESC TEC allowed us to prototype and to validate the solution, that is, the collaboration gave us a lot of effective value.
In another completely different project, we’ll continue to work with INESC TEC in the assessment of the usability and the learning curve of the development platform OutSystems. This is a very poorly explored area and we hope to achieve very interesting, and most importantly, useful results for OutSystems.
