The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.

Am I understanding you right that you proposing to write new applications
using file I/O rather than SQL?
I don't think that's quite it. I think the idea is that as much coding
as possible (whether RPG or SQL or any other language) is already
"baked in" to the low-code development platform. So when it comes time
to customize and deploy an application which *uses* such a platform,
there isn't much coding to be done. It's mostly configuration.
So, there is most likely a lot of code needed to build an LCDP in the
first place; perhaps significantly more than if you were to
custom-build an application from scratch to exactly meet one
customer's particular specifications. But once you've got the LCDP,
you can in principle crank out lots of applications relatively
quickly.
I had originally thought to try to read the Forrester Research
reports. Ha! $2500 bucks for access! So, I just relied on the
Wikipedia article:
