Enterprise Platform Engineering, the Open Source Way: Platform engineering is one of the hottest topics in enterprise software development, and with good reason. It bridges the gap between pie-in-the-sky claims about accelerating application development (and ROI), and the boots-on-the-ground reality of most software teams—which are often already stretched thin while being asked to support increasingly ambitious business goals.
While there is no one-size-fits-all approach to platform engineering, it’s becoming increasingly clear that open-source software and projects are absolutely vital to its success. This talk will help you understand why and how you benefit by including open source in your platform engineering blueprint, and how to ensure the most success from that strategy.
