Platform Engineering: Build the Paved Road Developers Want

Platform engineering turns infrastructure, delivery and reliability into a self-service product. This hub gathers the directories behind it — developer platforms and portals, DevOps, SRE, observability, Kubernetes and DevSecOps.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is platform engineering?

Platform engineering is the practice of building and running an internal platform that gives development teams self-service access to the tools, environments and workflows they need, so they can ship software without becoming infrastructure experts.

What is the difference between an internal developer platform and an internal developer portal?

The platform is the set of capabilities and automation underneath, such as provisioning, pipelines and deployment. The portal is the interface on top: a software catalog, documentation and self-service actions that developers use to reach the platform.

How does platform engineering relate to DevOps and SRE?

DevOps supplies the culture and delivery practices, SRE supplies reliability targets and incident discipline, and platform engineering packages both into a product with golden paths that teams can adopt without reinventing them.

Why do platforms build on Kubernetes?

Kubernetes gives a consistent API for deploying, scaling and governing workloads, which makes it a common runtime for internal platforms. It is a choice rather than a requirement, and many platforms also span virtual machines and serverless.

Where should I start?

Start with the Internal Developer Platforms and Portals pages to see the landscape, then follow the sections for CI/CD, security and observability that match your biggest delivery bottleneck.
