Engineering Platforms in Practice

Multiple forces have converged recently to put internal technical platforms in the spotlight for digital businesses. This talk encapsulates key insights drawn from various teams who have delivered engineering platforms in diverse organisations and industries around the world.  I’ll cover some commonalities in what makes them successful and discuss some real examples. Crucial elements include empathising with the developer experience, enlisting executive support, establishing a sound operating model and most importantly, communicating the value of the platform. Measuring value is a key but using the wrong metrics can make things worse. This talk is tailored for staff engineers, managers, and technology executives who want to make continual, measurable improvements in their engineering organisation's effectiveness.

工程平台实践

最近，多种力量汇聚在一起，使内部技术平台成为数字业务的焦点。本演讲概括了来自为世界各地不同组织和行业提供工程平台的各个团队的重要见解。我将介绍它们成功的一些共性，并讨论一些真实的例子。关键要素包括理解开发者体验、争取高管支持、建立健全的运营模式，最重要的是传达平台的价值。衡量价值是关键，但使用错误的指标会让事情变得更糟。演讲内容的核心是为希望持续、可衡量地提高工程组织效率的工程师、经理和技术管理者提供一些行业参考。
