When all you have is infrastructure, everything looks like a platform

Infrastructure is the foundation of application development. And sometimes the only thing companies care about. This talk explains how you shift your focus to platforms and developer experience.

Companies care about the infrastructure they run on. Platform teams in traditional lingo are slow in evolving their infrastructure and operations-centered thoughts to DevSecOps and platform as a product approaches to serve their internal clients. The secret to changing minds and successfully implementing a modern platform approach is that you need to step back, and look at many different aspects covering technology, process, organization, and success metrics. This talk will highlight five opportunities to expand the platform approach beyond technology and anchor it in continuous learning, community, and interfaces.
