Michael Maurer, Senior IT Consultant & Solution Architect at bbv, takes a more differentiated look at the matter and puts selected myths into perspective.
Exploiting opportunities for growth with the cloud
Following migration to the cloud, the curaBILL solution from Swisscom Health is fit for the future. bbv ensured a smooth transition to the cloud, using the latest technologies, high security and scalability to deliver faster innovations.
Software based on modular design
Low-code and no-code platforms allow even those not well versed in IT to develop productive business applications. Professional programmers should also make use of the relevant tools to complement rather than replace their work.
