Effective Platform Engineering

A great developer platform makes your development team incredibly efficient, providing a customized one-stop shop for everything they need to build and deploy applications. Effective Platform Engineering introduces platform engineering as a discipline, teaching you what goes into a great developer platform and then showing you how to develop your own.

Effective Platform Engineering demonstrates through practical examples and scenarios how platform engineering differs from traditional DevOps, what value it brings to an organization, and how to articulate and demonstrate that value to stakeholders. Chapter by chapter, you’ll build an understanding of both the patterns and anti-patterns of platforms. You’ll go hands-on to design and deploy secure, scalable, and observable engineering platforms based on real-world use cases. Diagrams, code samples, and exercises help you visualize important concepts and lock-in your learning. Plus, full coverage of generative AI tools within platform engineering ensures your team can take full advantage of the latest developments in code generation.
