What is Platform Engineering?
Platform Engineering is the practice of designing, building, and maintaining internal developer platforms (IDPs) that abstract away infrastructure complexity, enable self-service, and streamline software delivery. These platforms provide reusable building blocks, automation, and secure pathways — or “golden paths” — for developers to deploy and operate applications reliably.
Where DevOps asks developers to manage tooling, Platform Engineering builds paved roads for them, so they can ship features without worrying about infrastructure, compliance, or operational overhead.
“Platform Engineering is DevOps at scale — delivering developer velocity without sacrificing control.”
- Charity Majors, CTO of Honeycomb
The Problem Without Platform Engineering
- Developers face tool sprawl and spend time learning infrastructure
- Inconsistent setups across teams lead to fragile deployments
- Onboarding new services or developers takes days or weeks
- Ops teams are overwhelmed with repetitive requests
- Governance, compliance, and security policies are applied manually
- Developer productivity is stifled by complexity and bottlenecks
How Platform Engineering Solves the Problem
Platform Engineering enables self-service and scale while maintaining control and consistency. It helps organizations:
- Provide pre-configured environments with best practices
- Reduce developer toil with automation and abstraction
- Offer secure, compliant deployment workflows
- Centralize logging, metrics, and secret management
- Scale DevOps without scaling the complexity
- Shorten lead time for new service deployment
