Platform engineering is the discipline of designing and building toolchains and workflows that enable self-service capabilities for software engineering organizations in the cloud-native era.

Platform Engineering

Getting overwhelmed with all the talks in Kubecon EU next week. Any platform engineering related recommendations?

If you are looking for solutions to optimize your K8s cost and improve the durability of your environment, you should stop by  <https://perfectscale.io/|PerfectScale's> booth (SU13) and chat with us. (Also grab some pretty cool swag :wink:).  Sorry for the SSP :sweat_smile:.

The App Delivery TAG (which is a parent to the Platform WG) has a booth with lightning talks and open hours. Details should be here: <https://appdelivery.cncf.io/blog/tag-app-delivery-at-kubecon-eu-2023/>

There are too many good options :see_no_evil: finally did a quick pass to see how bad the conflicts are, and the challenge will be real!

I know! I'm suffering analysis paralysis.

Yea, so far only managed vertical scaling of myself :see_no_evil::sweat_smile::rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:

Same. Then I realised I'm not so elastic and struggle to downscale.

Hey <@U0453H0SDV1>
Do not forget to visit the Devtron booth there (SU52) if you are looking for platfrom engineering tools. Devtron is an open source Kubernetes-Native DevOps Platform that abstracts out all the complexities of Kubernetes and seamlessly integrates with cloud native tools like ArgoCD, Helm, Argo Workflows, Keda, Grafana, and much more.

Check this out - <http://github.com/devtron-labs/devtron|github.com/devtron-labs/devtron>

Hey <@U02J1C4EH6V> is Devtron like an IDP?

Yes, you can use Devtron as IDP. As per what I have seen among the user, DevOps team does the initial configurations and thereafter, its all driven by devs mostly.

Check out the talk on DevSpace <https://sched.co/1HycU>

I put the WG Platform stuff on my calendar
