Backstage is not your platform
Want to build a platform? Why not just add Backstage or any other portal on top of your setup and call it a day? The reality is portals are (useful) interfaces to your platform. They are NOT your platform. In this talk, Kaspar discussed how portals like Backstage are complemented by platform backends (Platform Orchestrators) to ship an Internal Developer Platform that’s ready for primetime.
When building your Internal Developer Platform (IDP), it’s crucial you start with the backend and later go up to higher layers like portals. The backend is where your core logic resides and what makes your platform engineering initiative truly enterprise-level. In this talk, Kaspar explained how you can combine open-source platform interfaces like Score and Backstage with a Platform Orchestrator like Humanitec.
During this session, you can learn:
How to combine Backstage and Humanitec in a platform your developers will actually love
How to use IDP reference architectures as blueprints for the enterprise
A demo of the developer experience in a fully-fledged platform
