Platform Engineering: New role or emerging area? Debate on Kubicast. Dev Autonomy and platform control also on the agenda.
CTO
João Brito
Kubicast gathered a very experienced group to discuss Platform Engineering. Is the term a new job title, an emerging area, a way to implement DevOps, or just hype? And if you are to have a platform, is only the one you build yourself worth it? Regarding the autonomy of Devs, what should the platform control or not? Also, how updated is the platform to meet the demands of the Devs? Finally, the folks also gave their opinion on what would be their dream platform!
