A set of nodes that run containerized applications. Containerizing applications packages an app with its dependences and some necessary services. They are more lightweight and flexible than virtual machines. In this way, Kubernetes clusters allow for applications to be more easily developed, moved, and managed. Kubernetes clusters allow containers to run across multiple machines and environments: virtual, physical, cloud-based, and on-premises. Kubernetes containers are not restricted to a specific operating system, unlike virtual machines. Instead, they can share operating systems and run anywhere.

Low code is a software development method that allows colleagues to create fully featured applications with minimal coding. With low-code, non-technical users utilize visual point-and-click tools to build, modify and deploy custom software. At the same time, programmers and tech-savvy professionals can extend applications by injecting code. Microsoft PowerApps is an example of such Low Code development platform. Other low code platforms, namely Oracle VBCS, Salesforce APEX, and ServiceNow App Engine, which will be opened up to UNDP Business Units after Quantum implementation.
