What is platform engineering?

Developer experience platform

Platform Engineering is the practice of building useful abstractions and self-service infrastructure within an organization, to unify scattered tools and accelerate developer productivity. Platform Engineering aims to mitigate the cognitive overload caused by a shared-responsibility model that's gone too far, by smoothing the day-to-day developer experience.

80 %

Establish platform teams

By 2026, 80% of software engineering organizations will establish platform teams as internal providers of reusable services, components, and tools for application delivery. Platform engineering will ultimately solve the central problem of cooperation between software developers and operators.

Why platform engineering benefits

High performing organization imageHigh performing organization

Increase productivity

Dev team decides what infrastructure should be created, based on project templates, guidance, and collaboration with the self-service infrastructure team (Platform + DevOps team). Dev team is not waiting time for the IT or networking team to set up resources.


Leverage knowledge-sharing

By enabling teams with self-service, the organization can share the software practices, best practices, and standards widely for all projects (if they need).


Respond to shortage of infrastructure, SRE, or DevOps engineers

IT talents are in high demand on the market. If we can structure and organize a team of experts as a platform team, then we can leverage and optimize the resources ad people in the organization.

Platform engineering model

The rise of Internal Developer Platforms (IDP)

Figure: Platform engineering model built by NashTech’s experience

An IDP also leverages its knowledge graph to support scenarios that are critically important to other enterprise stakeholders, including in architecture, ops, security, platform, reliability engineering, and FinOps. It is a powerful workflow and analytics tool that enables organizations to build more reliable, secure, cost-efficient software faster.

The open platform for building self-service portals

Abstract away the complexity of cloud infrastructure and microservice software development lifecycle as well as combine other NashTech accelerators such as Architectural Library, DevSecOps pipeline, and Observability into one unified platform.
