Hey there,
I spend a gigantic amount of time observing platform teams, initiatives, and the industry as a whole. I strongly believe that the platform engineering fundamentals course from the Platform Engineering Community is one of the most valuable things on the market right now.
The second group of people is starting in just a few weeks October 10, and will continue until the end of November after 8 live sessions. If you wanted to join, I have some rather exciting news.
Thanks to all of you who are reading this (and also because I told Luca to give me one)... we have a special discount code for the next 7 days!
You can use the code SPECIAL30 and get a 30% discount code when you get your spot.
So what’s actually in the course?
The course is designed to be an effective singular source of all the fundamentals of platform engineering e.g. Platform as a Product, golden paths, DevOps vs PE, infrastructure platform engineering, platform orchestration, Backstage, and other more important interfaces;) + much more.
Interestingly, the majority of people who joined the first course joined as part of a full team from their company.
That makes perfect sense. If you want to make sure your team:
- all have the same definition of platform engineering
- understands the best practices, the big mistakes and how to avoid them
- has the product management knowledge they need to deliver value
AND know how to actually sell platform engineering internally and get buy-in from management and adoption from your developers.
Then the course is a no brainer. I will boldly claim that with it you could save months of time in aligning your platform team, and delivering on your platform.
Go take a look! And remember to use the code SPECIAL30 if you wanted that discount:)
