Latest Version of the Appian Platform Increases Speed and Impact of Low-code Development
May 14 2019 - 12:00PM
Appian (NASDAQ: APPN) today announced the newest version of the
low-code Appian Platform, which increases the speed and business
impact of low-code development. The release fulfills Appian’s
“Connected Systems” vision for no-code integration across a host of
popular enterprise systems and services. The release extends
Appian’s commitment to simplicity through visual query design of
business data sources and intuitive controls to easily display that
data in a grid. The new version also furthers Appian’s promise of
worry-free deployment through enhanced automation for DevOps, and
the addition of new certifications to Appian’s already
industry-leading list of security accreditations.
“Today’s release advances low-code
development as a key IT asset for quickly building and deploying
transformational and mission-critical business applications,” said
Malcolm Ross, Vice President of Product at Appian. “Appian has the
speed and enterprise-grade qualities to take our customers from
idea to application in eight weeks. That’s the mission of the
Appian Guarantee.”
Connected SystemsWith
the new release, Appian expands the Appian AppMarket’s library of
no-code Connected Systems and UI Component Plug-ins. These packaged
integrations to specific 3rd-party functionality and systems
increase the speed and business impact of solutions for the contact
center, customer experience, and operational performance. They are
built by Appian, its partners, and customers using Appian’s
recently-announced Integration Software Development Kit (SDK) that
makes creating 3rd-party integration plug-ins simple.
A small sample of the new Connected
Systems and Component Plug-ins now packaged with Appian or from the
Appian AppMarket includes:
- Twilio - makes integration with Twilio easy
for Appian Intelligent Contact Center™ (ICC) customers, empowering
contact center reps with advanced call controls for real-time
customer communications.
- Salesforce - delivers intuitive no-code
integration between Appian and Salesforce.

Automation Anywhere robotic process automations from Appian.

Low-Code Development through
Visual Query and Grid Design The new Appian release makes
application design even more simple. Appian previously announced
the expansion of its patented SAIL (Self-Assembling Interface
Layer) framework to allow automatic and intelligent creation of
interfaces based only on a data model. The latest Appian release
makes this even easier with a new no-code visual interface for
creating data store queries. Query creation is used in every
application, and is one of the most challenging tasks in
application design. Appian’s new Visual Query Editor allows
designers to create queries faster and with fewer errors, while
requiring less expertise to get started. The Visual Query Editor is
fully integrated with Appian’s Interface Designer and new-evolved
Paging Grid.
Worry-free
DeploymentThe new release bolsters Appian’s position as
the most secure, reliable and scalable cloud platform for the
enterprise. New DevOps features make it easier than ever to
automate deployment of new apps across systems. This includes a
host of code review and monitoring features across application
elements including process models, data, rules, and interfaces.
With this release, Appian has also
extended its industry lead in security accreditations with the
addition of:
- ISO 27001 - Demonstrates that the certified
organization has identified the risks, assessed the implications
and put in place a managed set of security controls to limit any
damage to the organization, its data and operations.
- HITRUST - A health care certification offering
a third-party assessment that verifies an organization meets all of
the industry-defined requirements of the Common Security Framework
and provides a prescriptive framework for managing the security
requirements inherent in HIPAA.
- Impact Level 4 - Federal and Department of
Defense agencies can now use Appian as a managed service for
low-code applications that must meet the strict IL4 requirements
for Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). At IL4, an Appian
application can be used to manage and store Export Controls,
Privacy Information (including PII), Protected Health Information
(PHI), and other information requiring explicit CUI
designation.
