As cloud-native environments grow more complex, platform engineering has emerged to help organizations streamline operations and scale their DevOps practices.
Join our executive roundtable with Kaspar von Grünberg, CEO at Humanitec, and Rickey Zachary, Global Engineering Platforms Lead at Thoughtworks, centered around platform engineering initiatives, best practices, and conversations on building a robust Internal Developer Platform for the enterprise. No pitches or product demos, just real, candid conversations about wins and lessons learned.
Topics we’ll cover during this roundtable include:
• How to apply common blueprints uncovered from hundreds of platform implementations to design an enterprise-grade Internal Developer Platform
• How a Minimum Viable Platform framework can accelerate your rollout and deliver early wins across internal teams
• The real-world impact of effective platform engineering on delivery speed and time to market
After a 30-minute talk there’ll be a 15-minute Q&A, for which we encourage you to submit questions in advance.
A webinar recording and related materials will be shared with all attendees after the event.
