The API platform engineering newsletter #001

The inaugural edition of the API platform engineering newsletter, created by Jennifer Craig, aims to support platform teams in maximizing the value of their APIs and API platforms by providing a variety of resources, insights, and events. It targets platform engineers, DevOps engineers, SREs, API platform managers, and engineering managers, with content delivered twice a month. The newsletter features expert insights, such as Steven Lohrenz's overview of platform engineering principles and Charity Majors' discussion on the future of operations, which she argues lies in platform engineering. Richard Seroter from Google Cloud presents a viewpoint on optimizing developer workflows by shifting responsibilities back to the platform. Upcoming events include the Kubernetes Community Days in Munich and an online session on building resilient applications, while readers can also engage with an "Ask Me Anything" session featuring Sonja Chevre, a Group Product Manager at Tyk. The newsletter encourages community contributions and offers a chance to test API platform knowledge in its quiz corner.
