This talk is about the future of platform engineering, increasingly central to enterprise IT. As AI 'eats software', platform engineering faces a 'fork in the road': building AI-powered platforms and developing platforms for AI (for AI/ML workloads & data). Platform teams are expanding their scope to serve new users like data scientists, MLOps, and data engineers, becoming the backbone for enterprise-grade AI applications. Discover maturing blueprints like data reference architectures, and evolving platform team structures for 2025.
