Description
In today's rapidly evolving technical landscape, the resilience of internal development platforms (IDPs) is paramount. This presentation draws on a series of case studies to showcase how to design and maintain platforms that can withstand various challenges, such as enabling teams to go faster, ensuring policy and workflows are enforced, and scaling from managing one cluster to multiple clusters.
Stories shared include a two-sided marketplace company that built and migrated to a Mesos-based platform to ensure resilient operation during Black Friday sale events, a UK bank that moved from changes requiring approval from multiple boards to compliance and governance being automated within a Kubernetes-based platform, and more.
