Session
Not every team needs a full-blown internal developer platform—but every team needs something to reduce friction. In this talk, we’ll walk through three levels of self-service maturity: the IaC factory (where platform teams write most of the infrastructure), the template/module model (where platform teams publish reusable components), and the full IDP model (where app teams provision resources through UI or CLI with guardrails). We’ll also break down what actually goes into a platform—including foundational infrastructure, shared services, workloads, and developer experience—and how to right-size your approach without overbuilding. Whether you’re just starting out or trying to improve adoption, this talk will help you map where you are and where you should (or shouldn’t) go next.
