Why Internal Developer Platforms are next-level DevOps

In 2022, organizations are facing an industry-wide talent shortage and increasing complexity, making it essential to improve their DevOps setup. An Internal Developer Platform (IDP) can help take their DevOps setup to the next level by providing full developer self-service, reducing cognitive load, and allowing engineers to focus on meaningful work. IDPs connect and integrate every tool within the DevOps setup, giving engineers a purpose-built interface that follows a standard, making it easier for them to get things done without reinventing the wheel. By using an IDP, organizations can automate the CI/CD pipeline, provide visibility and measurement, scale their operations, and demonstrate value to engineers. This helps manage complexity, reduces friction, and improves developer experience, making it a crucial component of high-performing DevOps setups.
