Pega 8.8 is the latest version of the Pega Platform, which promises to streamline and enhance business application development. With AI-assisted development, natural language processing, and more, Pega 8.x brings many new features to help developers and organizations build better applications faster.
Upgrading to Pega 8.x can also lead to significant gains in productivity, agility, and cost savings. This article will explore key changes introduced in the Pega 8.x upgrade and how they can benefit developers and businesses.
Pega 8.x introduces AI-powered development assistance to help developers create applications more quickly and efficiently. The AI-assisted development feature analyzes the requirements and provides suggestions for implementing the functionality.
It also identifies any potential issues before the application is built, reducing the likelihood of errors and enhancing application quality.
The Prediction Widget is another significant addition to Pega 8.x. This feature uses AI and machine learning algorithms to make data-driven predictions about future events, such as the likelihood of a customer churning or a lead converting.
Developers can leverage these predictions to enhance the customer experience and drive business outcomes.
In Pega 8.x, Promoted Actions have been introduced to make it easier for users to take specific actions on cases. These actions can be promoted to the top of the user's screen and made easily accessible, thereby increasing user productivity and improving the overall user experience.
Pega 8.x also comes with Natural Language Processing (NLP) capabilities, allowing users to interact with the system more conversationally. Users can input commands and queries in natural language, and the system will interpret and process them accordingly.
This feature can be used to build chatbots, virtual assistants, and other conversational interfaces.
The Email Manager Portal for Constellation is another new addition in Pega 8.x. This feature allows users to manage their emails directly within the Pega platform. Users can view, reply to, and manage their emails without leaving the platform, improving productivity and streamlining the email management process.
Pega 8.x also supports Microsoft Azure Data Lake Storage Gen2 and OAuth 2.0 in repositories, making integrating data from multiple sources more accessible. This feature enhances data security and allows developers to build more robust data-driven applications.
Pega 8.x now supports many-to-many relationships in data modeling, allowing developers to model complex data relationships more easily. This feature simplifies the data modeling process and enhances the scalability of applications.
In addition to the above features, Pega 8.x introduces several new enhancements in the Insights section. These include:
Pega 8.x introduces the Constellation UI, a new user interface that complements traditional UI.

The Constellation UI is designed to be configurable, which means that it can be modified to fit a specific use case. The UI components can be easily arranged, and the layout can be changed without requiring any code changes. Moreover, the components can be removed or added to the UI as required.
In addition to being configurable, the Constellation UI is also customizable. This means that it can be designed to match the branding and style of the organization. Custom styles and themes can be created, and the color palette can be modified to match the organization's branding.
Overall, the Constellation UI offers a more flexible and customizable approach to building user interfaces in Pega 8.x, making it easier for organizations to build interfaces tailored to their needs.
Pega's new architecture has been designed to focus on flexibility, scalability, and extensibility. Separating the orchestration layer from the presentation layer allows using any web-standard front-end technology, such as Angular, React, or Vue.js. This provides a better separation of concerns, making maintaining and upgrading applications easier.
The new architecture provides a new app studio that allows for easy, fast, and consistent error-proof configurability. With this new app studio, you can easily customize UI components, layouts, and styles without any coding. This makes it easier for business users and citizen developers to quickly adapt to changing requirements and create new applications with minimal IT involvement.
Furthermore, Pega's new architecture is future-proof, supporting emerging web standards and technologies. This ensures that applications built on Pega's platform remain relevant and up-to-date even as the technology landscape evolves.
Furthermore, these features combine to make it easier for organizations to build and maintain innovative, user-friendly applications.
