mgm has entered into a strategic partnership with OpenTalk. OpenTalk offers a secure video conferencing solution based on open source and is part of the Berlin-based Heinlein Group. The goal of the collaboration is to integrate OpenTalk into mgm's A12 enterprise low-code platform to create a comprehensive and easy-to-use video conferencing solution, especially for the public sector.

SAP integration can be optimised with efficient low-code platforms. This enables companies to manage complex integration projects, particularly in the context of SAP S/4HANA implementations, in a cost-effective and time-saving manner.

The development of enterprise software faces increasing challenges, especially in the context of complex systems. This underscores the importance of effective test management. Easy-to-use test management plays a central role in complex software development.

Companies need to be able to adapt and innovate in near real time to keep pace with ever-changing demands and customer needs. One of the most promising technology combinations to meet these requirements is the fusion of low code and cloud computing. In this article, we highlight the benefits of this combination.

During the first week of October, the A12 Simple Model Editor (SME) team attended the prestigious Conference for Model-Driven Engineering Languages and Systems (MODELS 23) in Västerås, Sweden, and reaffirmed mgm technology partners' commitment to innovation and leadership in the field of model-driven software development.

After winning a major award for the first time, the question inevitably arises: "Can we do it again?" For mgm, this question was answered last night at the IT Awards gala in Augsburg: In the category "Low Code / No Code", mgm won gold and thus 2nd place at the Readers' Choice Awards 2023. The nomination was once again made by the internet portal Dev-Insider.

In numerous test automation projects, mgm now successfully utilizes the product QF-Test from its recent subsidiary, QFS. This collaboration has already led to innovative approaches that enhance efficiency and improve quality and reliability in software projects, particularly when addressing the challenges of test automation in A12 Low Code platform-based projects.

Enterprise low code platforms like A12 combine low code with custom development to create tailored, long-lasting business applications. Can this method accelerate software development and improve collaboration between business and IT without eliminating the role of developers?

Developing bug-free software, especially for complex and mission-critical applications, is always a challenge. However, quality assurance in software development has evolved to the point where the number of system defects can be significantly reduced. In enterprise projects, specification-based, efficiency-based, and structure-based test design methods have dominated. However, risk-based testing has played a minor role. Given the increasing complexity and scope of software, the question arises under what conditions risk-based testing could play a greater role.

Since the beginning of 2023, the Simple Model Editor (SME) bundles all modeling functionalities of the Enterprise Low Code Platform A12. We take a look at what makes the tool tick today and what plans there are for further development.
