Thanks to the organisers, some real gems here 🥰

Agree with @Andre.BigDaddy.De.Jager - I need to rewatch a few of these on youtube to make sure I did not miss any gems.

Thanks for the top-notch content and great community, now going to binge-watch these playlists (and surely write a recap blog post in the process) 🍿 Have a great week-end all!

And it's a wrap!! Thanks everyone for being part of the first ever PlatformCon! platformcon It's been a ton of fun having you all in here asking and answering questions, talking all things platforms, talking about fruit salads!🥝 This community is a special place, thanks to all of you. I am sure you all still have to catch up on some of the playlists, so have a nice weekend, enjoy the talks and see you at PlatformCon23!

hey guys, generic feedback for next year sessions. This one was good, I enjoyed recordings, but please pay attention to sound / recorded voice quality. I have to say I had to stop listening to at least one recording, because voice quality was so low, that it was hard to focus on the content. In general it was OK, but there should be some quality gate that approves videos (probably there is, but for some reason at least this one was not checked)

Hey there, sorry if someone already asked, is there a place/channel to find slides in written form (speakerdeck, ppt, pdf or else)? Thanks 😊

Anyone here from the Austin TX meetup? 🙂

Going through the talks, was there any talk about building an Operator on top of Kubernetes for your platform?

Hello! any Argocd users here? Could you please share best practices in using Applicationset generator?

Anyone else going to be at Monitorama in Portland. If so, DM me would love to meet up and do some of these activities in a few weeks after hours. Never been to Portland, but supposedly Summer Time is the best time of year. Excited for it! https://www.travelportland.com/events/summer-downtown-portland/

Hey hey! Still can’t believe the first ever PlatformCon is already gone by. It’s been very inspiring! 2 days packed with fruitful 🍇😜 discussions. Huge THANKS once again to all the speakers, sponsors and all of you that participated. 🙌 We want PlatformCon23 to be even more fun, so we put together this quick post-platformcon survey (it’s literally 6 questions, 30 seconds of your time). Please fill it out and help us rock PlatformCon23 even harder 🙂 I’ll be discussing highlights and key learnings in a special edition meetup with @Lee Ditiangkin tomorrow btw, join us!

Heyy👋, 2 things: 1️⃣ Your feedback matters! We would love to hear from you 🙂 please fill this quick post-platformcon survey (literally up to 5min long) if you haven’t yet. 2️⃣ We want you to stay in touch with one another and also find new contacts in this community. Feel free to add your linkedin and T accounts to your Slack profile!

The first article in our blog series on Platforms just released. I'd love your feedback on what you all think about our definition of platforms. • 👉 The Building Blocks of Platforms (Ad Hoc blog)

Hey guys, hosting a post-conf session here for who wants to join

Random question: Is there any actual data/research on there about ideal times for inner and outer dev loops?

It’s important to be in sync with respect to what counts as platform engineering in an organization. @Ryan Grimard raised a great question a few days ago: What percentage of your engineering organization is Platform Engineering? 0️⃣ 0% 1️⃣ 1-5% 2️⃣ 6-15% 3️⃣ 16-30% 4️⃣ 31-50%

Thank you for you responses ☝️. Do you think we should investigate this data deeper? Another thing, I would love to see you all at the upcoming platformcon recap with @Paula Kennedy and @Mathieu Frenette on June 2️⃣1️⃣! Register here 👈 See you soon, right?! 🙂

Going live with @Paula Kennedy and @Mathieu Frenette

FYI, I think this link didn't show up in LinkedIn

hey, just wanted to say the talks were great! I did watch a lot of them and learned a lot of new stuff 🙂

Thanks @Diógenes Fernandes glad to hear that!

Hey ! Does anyone have good resources to read up more about Platform Teams ? I am working on a talk which has an opinion “Platform teams are doing the wrong thing” (sort-of), and want to validate that against some industry knowledge of what people see as platform teams. Anything you can send me / tell me about platform teams would be really helpful 🙂

An endless topic: IDP - when and why would you (not) need it? Just recently I read a couple of articles about why software teams need an IDP (TechBeacon and The New Stack) and listened to some of the talks from PlatformCon. Here are my key takeaways: • Don’t jump into IDP just because it’s trending. Better analyze existing commercial and open-source tools to see if it is something your organization is ready for. ◦ Often companies are still too small for an IDP to benefit them. ◦ IDP is worthy once the company has one or more development teams working on different aspects of one or more interconnected applications. • IDP is not a threat to operations teams. It’s the opposite. Operations teams can spend more time satisfying customer demands rather than fielding requests from development teams. • Treat platform as a product. A takeaway from at PlatformCon. Shortly, once the cognitive load is reduced for development teams, they are then more capable to put focus on customers’ needs. • Assess 2 scenarios: to build IDP internally or outsource. ◦ Building internally requires not only the additional investment in the technology, but a separate platform engineering team as well. However, this scenario might benefit if a company has strong autonomy internally. ◦ Outsourcing gives a full package with know-how instead of investing time and money doing it per se. What other important points am I missing?

Hey guys, just found @Nish message on #kubernetes. Is here anyone else willing to volunteer and give some advise to him? 🙂 Let’s support each other 😉

Hey! Eilon from Aqua. Does anyone know of a community for DevEx? thanks 🙂

We just started a new DevEx community, it's at the very beginning but we have great people joining 😇 https://join.slack.com/t/devex-community/shared_invite/zt-1a148vlc3-06QzZO98pDwndY6y9iNI4Q
