Do you work at doordash <@U07FTS659NV>?:smile:

probably worth sharing some more context or thoughts other than just posting a link

Hey Luca, no I wish I did, I do use DoorDash a lot tho :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing:  

The context is behind the value of the article, thought it was a good read about how pain points and solutions addressing those pain points led to DoorDash deploying their Kafka Self-Serve platform. Hopefully its a good read to further understand the value of platforms and the thought process that leads to developing them.
