The Role of Platform Teams and Internal Developer Platforms
Platform teams play a crucial role in reducing cognitive load and friction for streamline teams, enabling them to deliver business capabilities seamlessly. Internal developer platforms provide self-service capabilities, reducing friction, and enabling developers to focus on delivering value. While internal developer portals like Spotify's backstage are valuable, they are not silver bullets. Platforms go beyond portals by helping with infrastructure provisioning, CI/CD pipelines, quality verification, security, and other essential aspects. The focus in the upcoming year is expected to shift towards internal developer platforms offering comprehensive support in architecture and quality assurance.
