What resources are there that go inepth into platform engineering?
I currently see myself in a position where I'm responsible for direction of a platform.
What best practices are there around common things like urn, config management, infra provisioning, and other common components.
I have my best practices, which I could enforce on users. But how do I know what is most important to focus on.
- brujoand 5y agoI wrote down my experiences with building delivery platforms, which answers some of this. Might be interesting https://blog.brujordet.no/post/devops/building-a-delivery-platform/ https://blog.brujordet.no/post/devops/building-a-delivery-pl... But with regards to purely technical stuff like what tools to choose and how to use them you’ll need experience, either your own or someone elses. There’s really no replacement in my opinion. I had loads of experienced people around me previously, but now that I work more or less alone in the field I rely a lot on community slack channels for the various tools and debugging. It’s amazing to be stuck trying to figure out how to best use Loki for logging, jump on their slack and get advice from the Lead Engineer working on the tool. Or getting input on what tools to use from 50 different people in different companies through /r/devops on reddit.
