I still think that the article doesn't say 'how PE works' as opposed to providing a bunch of tips. "The engineering platform is created and maintained by a dedicated product team, designed to support the needs of software developers and others by providing common, reusable tools and capabilities, and interfacing to complex infrastructure." [0] "Platform engineering is the process of designing and implementing toolchains that improve the software delivery experience. Platform engineers set up automated infrastructure and self-service controls that allow developers to work more efficiently." [1] "Platform engineering is the “discipline of designing and building toolchains and workflows that enable self-service capabilities for software engineering organizations in the cloud-native era. Platform engineers provide an integrated product most often referred to as an ‘Internal Developer Platform’ covering the operational necessities of the entire lifecycle of an application."
