Summary
Today’s landscape of cloud-native tools, technologies, infrastructure resources, and application development paradigms ultimately define optimal platform engineering strategies, but executing those strategies is often a complex and highly demanding task for organizations across all sizes and industries.
Platform engineering is the foundation of digital transformation success.
As this discipline directly affects an organization’s ability to rapidly, continuously, and cost-effectively deliver high-quality software in anticipation of and in response to complex and dynamic market requirements. Today’s landscape of cloud-native tools, technologies, infrastructure resources, and application development paradigms ultimately define optimal platform engineering strategies, but executing those strategies is often a complex and highly demanding task for organizations across all sizes and industries.
To address these challenges, organizations are turning to platform engineering tools and best practices to accelerate and optimize the process of designing, building, and managing scalable and secure self-service platforms and workflows to optimize developer productivity. To gain further insights into these trends, we surveyed 376 application developers and IT professionals at organizations in North America (US and Canada) involved with or responsible for using, evaluating, implementing, and managing platform engineering solutions and practices.
