New to platform engineering? Never heard about the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF)? This talk is for you!
We start from the question every team eventually asks: how do we give developers a paved road without locking ourselves into a single vendor or cloud? The answer is already there: a shopping list built entirely from open source, CNCF projects.
About platform engineering: we walk the core capabilities of an Internal Developer Platform and see what tools we can use to implement those capabilities.
Along the way we plug into the references that make sense of the chaos like the CNCF Platforms White Paper and the Platform Engineering Maturity Model.
The thread running through all of it is sovereignty: that’s what you get when your platform is built from open components you can self-host, audit and move.
And yes, a shopping list isn’t a platform so let’s learn how to build one together.
