It's a balance between simple development and complex development.

Apps like Caspio and Bubble IO provide a way for the average person to build a good MVP, test out a concept, and establish it more. 

Online forms like Jotforms or Gravity Forms allows for data capture and simple management.

Zapier enables two applications to talk to each other.

All are Low Code and answer the simple element.

But complex applications (video games, enterprise software, etc) requires someone with the right skills and experience to be able to turn requirements into outcomes in a way that does not compromise security, stability or availability.

Currently in our Enterprise Architecture tool and repository, we have a Business Capability Model (BCM) and a Technology Capability Model (TCM). Enabling Applications (e.g., SAP, Salesforce etc.) are mapped to the BCM, and enabling technologies (e.g., API gateway) are mapped to the TCM. However, some capabilities like Data Management are common to both models and we are trying to figure out best way to represent that.

How have you organized your capability model? Is it a single model containing business and technical capabilities or two separate models? If later, how are you organizing common capabilities like Data Management?
