Mumbai, 21 May 2020: DronaHQ announces the release of multiple environments on its no-code platform to make it easy for users to set up, observe and manage apps in different development environments.
To methodically implement business-critical applications, organizations need to maintain multiple environments to build and test their app prior to its release to a production environment. While seasoned developers and IT experts will need no explanation, the three main environments for application lifecycle management are development, beta, and production. In their most recent platform upgrade, DronaHQ has created yet another level of abstraction for no-code creators with an easy to define configuration module.
With the launch of Multiple Environments, users can now continue to test their MicroApps even after the app has gone live in production without affecting the Live Users. There are 3 MicroApp environments in Studio –
- Prod
- Beta
- Dev (Preview only)
Users can publish your MicroApps either in Beta or Prod environment.
Speaking about the importance of multiple environment in No-code, Jinen Dedhia – Co-founder and MD, DronaHQ said, “It is crucial for organizations to have multiple environments especially when the need for control over versions is high and the data connected to the app is critical. Especially for our enterprise customers with several end users/teams for the app, these environments will ensure that the app is tested rigorously, while parallelly keeping teams engaged and eliminating downtime. The customers won’t have to implement DevOps on their own.”
The development environment is configured differently from that which the end-users will work in. Users can keep adding and testing new features to their applications without having to worry about messing up the real organizational data. The beta environment will allow for testing of applications where any major issues that may sneak up later can be identified. The final production environment is when the application is accessible to all users after the updates are made and features have been tested.
“Making a platform enterprise-grade is much more than security and ease of scalability. Admins may not want to give access to the app to all the end-users immediately and test the app in batches. The Beta environment added on DronaHQ will automate a lot of steps that go into managing dev and further speed up taking the application to market.”
This makes DronaHQ the only enterprise no-code platform that is secure, supports scalability and now offers management of multiple environments, solving the challenges many developers face. Having multiple environments means saving time as the dependency on another person gets reduced for running multiple diagnoses parallelly. This also promotes app innovation as the teams are free to experiment different app functionalities as the live data is secure on the environments especially dedicated for this. They can quickly get feedback on their experiments/innovation and decide whether to proceed or not.
Business users, developers, LoB leaders, and all other users out there who would like to keep testing out app ideas even after it is deployed and easily manage environments can get their hands on [free 30-days trial]DronaHQ platform.
