9 Key Takeaways from a Platform Team’s Panel Discussion on Kubernetes

If you’re thinking about building a Kubernetes platform that your developers can use to build applications, you need to know where to start, what questions to ask, and how to build a platform that your developers will actually use. What are you thinking about — what capabilities are the top on your list? Are you building a 'paved road' to deployment and hoping developers will use it as intended? What other factors do you need to consider? The goal of an effective internal development platform (IDP) is to enable developers to deploy easily, but you need to make sure your platform team doesn't become a Kubernetes help desk — so how can you do that?

Recently, we had a panel discussion between Fairwinds and Chick-Fil-A to discuss how they are using Kubernetes and the platform they've built to enable their development teams. You can watch the recording on demand, but this post explores their discussion of some of the obstacles they encountered on their journey to developer self-service and how they've overcome them.
