Empowering platform teams to do cloud right
Cloud adoption is nearly universal — but cloud success? Not so much. Despite years of investment, many organizations still struggle with operational complexity, rising costs, and security risks.
To overcome these challenges, successful platform teams are adopting a lifecycle-based, “platform-as-a-product” mindset that treats infrastructure and security as scalable, curated products. This approach emphasizes — user-centered design, clear ownership, consistent feedback, and reliability
The results are standardized workflows, consolidated tooling, and developer self-service. This white paper gives platform teams a best-practice framework for the platform-as-a-product approach. It focuses on standardizing workflows with a unified platform for Infrastructure and Security Lifecycle Management (ILM and SLM).
Key takeaways:
- 5 traits of a platform-as-a-product mindset and how to implement it within a platform team
- 12 best practices for platform management
- How to shift from reactive to proactive workflows
- How to unify ILM and SLM across the application value chain with a centralized cloud platform
- How to unify ILM and SLM across the application value chain with a centralized cloud platform
