Summary

Gartner has placed platform engineering at the top of its trends to watch, and it's a big deal for organizations that want to improve their performance through internal developer platforms. Many teams are struggling to get started because they don't know how to design and implement these solutions, fearing that if they start small, they'll lose momentum before achieving success. Successful platform engineering initiatives start by working with a pioneering group of stakeholders who adopt new technologies first, and then scale up from there. They achieve this by starting small, deploying applications quickly, and providing value to all relevant stakeholders in a short amount of time. The platform team works closely with the developers and security teams to enforce governance policies and deploy resources efficiently. With Humanitec's products, organizations can get started quickly and prove the value of their platform engineering initiative within two weeks, making it an attractive option for companies looking to improve their performance.
