Pega is a powerful low-code application development platform designed to help businesses rapidly build and deploy enterprise-grade applications. Built by Pegasystems Inc., it streamlines digital transformation through workflow automation, case management, AI-powered decisioning, and robotic process automation (RPA).

In the tech industry, Pega is widely used in sectors like banking, insurance, healthcare, telecom, and government to build CRM systems, automate business processes, manage complex case lifecycles, and integrate with third-party platforms. Its drag-and-drop interface enables faster development with minimal coding, reducing time to market and improving operational efficiency.

Pega training is a professional course designed to teach individuals how to build, automate, and optimize business applications using the Pega platform. It’s ideal for developers, business analysts, system architects, and IT professionals who want to gain expertise in low-code development, workflow automation, and CRM systems. Whether you're a beginner or experienced in enterprise solutions, Pega training provides structured, hands-on learning to build smart applications faster.

Pega can be learned by anyone, whether you're a fresher, business analyst, developer, or IT professional. It is especially welcoming for:

• Freshers entering the software field

• Manual testers transitioning to automation

• Java/.NET developers seeking low-code skills

• Non-technical professionals moving into business process management

Prerequisites to learn Pega are minimal. You don’t need strong coding skills, but having a basic understanding of:

• Business workflows

• Databases and UI design

• Logic building or programming concepts

…can make the learning process smoother. PegaGang’s beginner-friendly courses start from scratch and provide expert-led training tailored to all backgrounds.

No, you do not need traditional programming skills to work with Pega. One of Pega’s core strengths is being a low-code/no-code platform, where most of the application logic is built using visual tools, drag-and-drop features, and declarative rules.

That said, having some logical thinking and basic IT knowledge can help in understanding process flows and integrations. For more advanced development, like customizing connectors or integrating external APIs, some Java or SQL knowledge might be beneficial — but it's not mandatory for most roles.

Pega is a proprietary software platform developed and maintained by Pegasystems Inc. It is not open-source, meaning organizations and developers must purchase licenses to access and deploy Pega applications in production environments.

However, Pega offers free access to Pega Academy and trial environments for learning and evaluation. You can practice building applications in cloud-based environments provided during training or certification preparation.

As of now, the most recent version of Pega is Pega Infinity '24 (2024). This version introduces cutting-edge updates in:

• AI-driven decisioning

• Enhanced case management

• Improved UI/UX components

• Robust DevOps support

• Seamless integration with modern cloud platforms

Pega Infinity '24 empowers enterprises with even faster, more intelligent automation and user-centric design. PegaGang offers up-to-date training aligned with Pega Infinity '24, ensuring you learn the latest industry-relevant skills.

Pega functions as a full-stack platform. It provides tools and capabilities for both front-end (UI/UX) and back-end (data handling, business logic, integrations) development. Here’s how:

• Front-End: Pega allows you to build dynamic UIs using sections, layouts, and custom styling with minimal code.

• Back-End: It includes workflow engines, process logic, data modeling, rule engines, and connectors for third-party integration.

• Middleware Layer: Pega also supports REST, SOAP, MQ, and other protocols to integrate with external systems.

This full-stack capability makes Pega ideal for developing complete end-to-end enterprise applications — without switching between multiple technologies.
