Platform engineering is on everyone’s radar, but what does it look like in practice here in Cincinnati? Join the Cincinnati Cloud Native Meetup for an interactive round table where local engineers, architects, and technology leaders will share their experiences building and running internal developer platforms.
We’ll discuss real-world challenges and tradeoffs, such as:
- The “golden path”: enabling productivity or limiting autonomy?
- Centralization vs. federated ownership of platforms
- Metrics that matter: how do you measure success?
- The role of AI and automation in shaping the developer experience
- Build vs. buy: should you roll your own internal platform or go with an off-the-shelf product?
- How do organizational structures help, or hinder, platform initiatives?
- Should you use an internal developer portal?
This is not a presentation, it’s a conversation. Whether you’re deep in platform engineering or just exploring it for your organization, come ready to learn, share, and debate with peers.
