The development of YIDA
- In March, 2017, it was officially launched in Alibaba on YIDA. In more than three years, more than 12700 applications were built internally, 99% of which were made up of HR, finance and other employees with no development experience built by themselves. According to statistics, these applications built with YIDA have saved Alibaba nearly 100000 person-days of resources.
- In YIDA 2019, it was officially used for foreign commercial use. In YIDA, it has served more than 6,000 customers, covering six major industries: New retail, medical treatment, manufacturing, energy, education and hotels.
- During the Spring Festival of 2020, YIDA helped governments and enterprises at all levels to quickly realize epidemic prevention and management with the advantages of low code and fast application construction, and built more than 2,000 epidemic applications in total, on average, each application takes only 1.5 days to go online.
- In January 2021, the DingTalk 6.0 conference officially announced the integration of YIDA and DingTalk, making it easier for 17 million organizations and 0.4 billion users on DingTalk to build nail native applications, for every enterprise, every functional department, each role provides the platform capability to quickly build applications so that everything at work can be digitized.
- In October 2021, at the low code sub-forum of the 2021 Yunqi Conference, Ye Shun, a senior technical expert of Alibaba (Huasheng Xiaoyong), released version DingTalk YIDA 3.0 on DingTalk, focusing on easy connection, cool data, safer. The number of low code applications on DingTalk exceeded 1.2 million, among which the number of suitable applications exceeded 1 million. Low code enabled more and more enterprises and organizations to find efficient and low-cost digital innovation paths, it also satisfies individual needs and makes individuals feel more acquired.
