Platform engineering is all about giving devs the tools they need to work independently. Work-from-home policies give people flexibility in where and how they work. It should be a match made in heaven, right? Well... it’s more complicated than that.Research, feedback, and evangelizing are critical to building an internal developer platform (IDP). But WFH can make that communication tough. And that's before you’ve even considered compliance and security (ugh, the 2FA). A human-focused IT strategy was crucial in supporting a shift to remote work during the pandemic, and it's going to be equally as important as we shift to a platform paradigm.In this roundtable discussion, Ben leads a roundtable discussion of how return-to-office plans can impact platform engineering, joined by Margaret Lee and David Sandilands, authors of Puppet's 2024 State of DevOps Report: Platform Engineering Edition.Speakers:Ben Ford, Community Lead at Puppet by PerforceMargaret Lee, Manager of Product Management at Puppet by PerforceDavid Sandilands, Senior Solutions Architect at Puppet by PerforceHighlights:The remote/in-office flexibility your platform needs to considerHardening measures essential to a secure IDP in the hybrid eraWhat we learned about accommodating a workforce during the pandemicEvangelizing a platform without the in-person connectionLinks:Email Margaret at [email protected] Ben on Mastodon, Twitter, and in the Puppet Community Slack as binford2kDavid Sandilands on TwitterGet the 2023 Platform Engineering Report and sign up to receive 2024’s when it releasesRead the episode transcriptFind Us Online:puppet.comApple PodcastsTwitterLinkedIn
