This session will explore how they went from having no platform engineering team at all, to fully utilizing leading platform engineering concepts, adopted an Internal Developer Platform (IDP), and provided a framework for how applications and infrastructure are deployed. Together we will explore the challenges of doing something new, how the team improved developer experience, and how our philosophy of automation, security, and standardization is shaping the technology and architecture landscape within the organization.

This talk will cover:

Our goals for platform engineering: Learn what goals led us to adopting platform engineering in the first place and how our desired outcomes drove our decision making processes.

How we adopted platform engineering: Learn how a business with no platform engineering team ended up embracing it’s principals in just a few short years. We will also discuss how the MVP and PRP processes played out for us, and the challenges we faced along the way.

How our goals are creating positive outcomes: Learn how we built a philosophy centered on platform engineering and improved developer experience to drive positive outcomes and meaningful results.

Join me to explore how platform engineering can transform legacy processes into a robust modern solution.
