Greetings, Tech Strategists! We're about to explore the exciting world of Platform Engineering, and many people believe it's the DevOps paradigm shift you must take advantage of - others see it as the hype.
Now, I know you need to be more aware of the name - Platform Engineering isn't just about platforms and products. Instead, it's a powerful approach to creating self-service environments that enable organizations to deliver and scale their products faster and more efficiently.
Here is what we found interesting last week:
Report: If you're looking for cutting-edge insights, look no further than the DevOps Benchmarking report from Humanitec. It emphasizes the importance of self-service, a trend reshaping how we approach software development and delivery: DevOps-benchmarking.
Community: If you're interested in staying ahead of the curve, check out the page on internal developer portals and Developer Experience - the cool kids are hanging out these days: Internal Developer Platform
Article: But that's not all. Backstage is rapidly becoming the go-to platform for Platform Engineering, and implementing it at scale is a critical capability that tech strategy experts need to master: Backstage-implementations-for-more-than-100k-developers
Article: And if you want to take your game to the next level, you've got to think like an entrepreneur. That's right, Platform Engineering as a Startup is the mindset you need to succeed in this space: Platform Engineering as a Startup
So, Tech Strategy experts, now we want to hear from you:
What's your take on Platform Engineering?
Where do you see the benefits, and what critical capabilities are necessary for success?
Is Platform Engineering just overhyped?
Please share your thoughts with us, and let's explore the exciting world of Platform Engineering together!
Regards, Florian
