Overview
Mendix has been SAP's main partner for enterprise low-code development since 2017 and was acquired by Siemens in 2019. As a result, it's uniquely positioned as an enterprise low-code development platform for manufacturers who want to transform their business with rapid application development.
Mendix helps your manufacturing domain experts collaborate directly with professional developers to build tens or even hundreds of enterprise-grade web and mobile apps at speed and scale, all running on a single platform. It's up to 10x faster than traditional coding, which means you can build more apps and keep up with business demand for digital transformation, and improving business-IT collaboration also leads to better apps with higher user adoption and better business outcomes.
Mendix has enterprise customers in all manufacturing sectors, from Automotive and Industrial Machinery to Aerospace and Defense, and from Electronics and Consumer Products to Life Sciences and Chemicals. In fact, shortly after Siemens acquired Mendix, they also started using it themselves. Four years later, they now have 600+ apps in production - all running on AWS - with 300+ more on the way.

APPLICATION TEMPLATES Mendix offers a range of pre-built app templates to show customers what's possible and help them jumpstart certain use cases, which they can then adapt to their own specific needs. We have app templates in the areas of shop floor (https://bit.ly/44D5A0Q ), quality management (https://bit.ly/3HQg6Ib ) and supply chain management (https://bit.ly/3nFAG7n ), including procurement, logistics, warehousing and production planning (https://bit.ly/41ax76Z ). A good example of an app template is the Mendix Lean Daily Management (LDM) Suite, which combines Mendix with AWS IoT TwinMaker to help production line supervisors monitor operations with a real-time, 3D visualization of the shopfloor (digital twin).
INTEGRATION CAPABILITIES Mendix is an open and agnostic platform that supports all common industry standards and integrates with any kind of system, from PLM and ERP to MES and IIoT. It's also the low-code platform of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, so it comes with pre-built integrations for Teamcenter, Opcenter, Insights Hub and other Xcelerator products. Thanks to its long-standing partnership with SAP, Mendix also has strong integration capabilities with SAP ECC, S/4HANA and BTP, including the ability to deploy Mendix apps directly to the BTP cloud.

MENDIX AND AWS Mendix is fully cloud-native, with containerized apps that can be deployed in a public cloud, private cloud, on premise and even on edge devices, like Siemens Industrial Edge. The cloud deployment options (https://bit.ly/3phq0MI ) include a highly automated and fully managed public cloud, called Mendix Cloud, which has run on AWS since 2016. Customers who prefer to deploy apps in their own AWS account can do that with the Mendix on Amazon EKS Reference Deployment (https://bit.ly/43rncef ). Over 75% of Mendix customers run their apps on Mendix Cloud, their AWS private cloud or a combination of both.
Mendix is also a key part of the Strategic Collaboration Agreement (SCA) (https://bit.ly/3XTJ6FL ) Siemens signed with AWS in 2021. As a result, Mendix now has a dedicated AWS development team, which aims to make Mendix the fastest and easiest way to build apps on AWS. This has resulted in a rich set of Mendix connectors to 20+ AWS services (https://bit.ly/419mRvz ) and an AWS Workshop (https://workshops.aws/card/mendix ), which teaches AWS builders how to use them and get started with Mendix for free. To do this, they will need the Mendix IDE, called Studio Pro. Normally, developers download it on their own machines, but they can also use the Studio Pro AMI (https://go.aws/3Md8TEZ ) to run it on Amazon EC2.

Experience with Mendix Platform
The best part what I like about Mendix is TAT(Turn around time) of the project. With help of Mendix, we can easily deliver an application in a span of 3 weeks from scratch right from development to deployment which usually takes months in case of traditional coding.
Mendix has a powerful offering as PaaS model where one has to be bothered for application and its data management and rather it is maintained by Mendix which helps in achieving less TAT (Turn around time) of the project.

Swiss army knife that beats high-coding in a ton of situations
Mendix should not be confused with no-code or limited low-code platforms. You may build a custom application from the ground up. It will allow you to cut corners and reach your ROI much faster. If the platform can't provide a solution out of the box, know that the tech stack is Java, SQL, and JavaScript, so extending the server-side logic with Java or the client-side logic with JavaScript is still possible. As enterprise apps and even small business apps never work alone, integrations are effortless to achieve. By default, REST, OData, SOAP and DB connections are supported out of the box.
As I use the platform daily and I have done so for 14 years, I know it inside and out. I have even had short projects supplying Mendix R&D with my skill set. And have been appointed MVP since June this year. This is a fantastic program to support ecosystem developers with direct lines to Mendix R&D to achieve a quick feedback loop and an even better platform.
Even if you are not ready to buy Mendix yet it is super easy to get started, after you have build your first app, perhaps based on an Excel you have been struggling with you may deploy it to a sandbox and share the results with the rest of the world.
Mendix is a full platform not just a coding language, allowing me to build, deploy, test, maintain and manage the whole software lifecycle.
