We often talk about needing a Kubernetes “platform,” but should we all be building our own platform as a service (PaaS)? Join me to learn more about Platform Orchestrators and explore the build, buy, and borrow tradeoffs.
At PlatformCon 2022, I argued that developers building applications on Kubernetes today are being asked not just to code. They are also responsible for shipping and running their applications. We often talk about needing a Kubernetes “platform” to handle these responsibilities, but do we really need to build our own PaaS?
Key considerations I’ll cover include:
Many organizations start their platform build with a developer portal, which provides success on day one but struggles with day two challenges.
There appears to be a “missing middle” that manages the platform lifecycle in many implementations, which a Platform Orchestrator can address.
Most organizations are not as unique as they think they are, but they do need a way of codifying their business processes into the platform.
