Summary
In this chapter, we have discussed the enormous size of the OutSystems ecosystem, its enormous potential, and everything we can rely on to ensure that we shine in the development of web and mobile applications.
Basically, the OutSystems platform provides a list of built-in features to help us develop faster, more securely, and with a very low margin of error, including horizontal scalability, hot deployment, asynchronous logging, bulk insert, multiple catalogs (only for on-premises installations), CDN support, traffic optimization, cache, and SEO-friendly URLs.
In addition, under the hood, the platform offers state-of-the-art capabilities, such as automated batch processing scaling, log tables rotation, database connections pooling, unused database connections unloading, optimized field fetching in aggregates, and optimized dataset memory loading.
In the next chapter, we'll take a closer look at the main components, tools, and capabilities used daily to develop our applications quickly, securely, and with high scalability. A work of art, in other words!
Interesting, isn't it? Well, we're just starting out...
