Hey All, I am a cloud and DevOps consultant. My client is keen to implement platform engineering and is looking to use backstage or port. Most of the infra is created with Bicep in azure atm using CI/CD in GitHub and azure DevOps. We got a shared project that can create infra, think of it like a pipeline that creates projects based on templates and run the CI/CD to create infra and deploy a hello world app. Which product do you think will suit better to work as a UI ? And what’s the advantages of otchestrator tools if the infra is spread out as on prem, cloud , k8s?
