Kubernetes has been around for nearly 10 years now. In the past five years, we’ve seen a drastic increase in adoption by engineering teams of all sizes. The promise of standardization of deployments and scaling across different types of applications, from static websites to full-blown microservice solutions, has fueled this sharp increase. Kubernetes is currently in its “hype cycle” phase.

In my previous article, I discussed the concept of a platform in the context of cloud native application development. In this article, I will dig into the journey of a platform engineering team and outline a step-by-step approach to building such a platform. It is important to note that building a platform should be treated no differently than building any other product, as the platform is ultimately developed for internal users.

For modern software teams, a dirty little secret is sapping productivity: Infrastructure configuration and management constantly distract developers from writing code. But addressing this requires rethinking long-held assumptions. In the old days, developers coded applications and “threw them over the wall” for infrastructure teams to deploy and run. This painful bifurcation led to friction and finger-pointing when issues arose.

Don’t listen to a vendor about AI, says John Willis, a well-known technologist and author in the latest episode of The New Stack Makers. “They’re going to tell you to buy the one size fits all,” Willis said. It’s like going back 30 to 40 years ago and saying, ‘Oh, don’t learn how to code Java, you’re not going to need it — here, buy this product.'”Willis said that DevOps provides an example of how human capital solves problems, not products.

At its Oracle CloudWorld conference in Las Vegas this week, Oracle is introducing a range of new analytics capabilities. In addition to its core Oracle Database, MySQL and MySQL HeatWave businesses, Oracle focuses on analytics and applications. As such, the new analytics capabilities it is announcing accrue to both its Oracle Analytics Cloud (OAC) platform as well as the value-added functionality for Oracle applications that run atop that platform.
