What Platform Engineering looks like today Provisioning and managing VMs and Kubernetes clusters Writing and maintaining complex YAML for network policies and security Manually setting up role-based access and permissions Stitching together CI/CD, monitoring, logging, and secrets management Troubleshooting broken pipelines and environment drift Managing secrets, config files, and environment variables across stages Enforcing compliance and security policies with little automation Responding to infrastructure issues instead of enabling developer velocity

- 11. Why current off-the-shelf IDPs frustrate platform engineers What They Actually Want What They Struggle With ● Too much time spent wiring tools together ● Rigid workflows that don’t adapt to organizational needs ● Fragmented developer experience across multiple dashboards ● Security and Zero Trust are bolted-on not built-in ● No visibility into platform usage or bottlenecks ● Another system to manage—not simplify ● A unified, composable platform with built-in best practices ● Secure by default, multi-cloud ready ● Self-service for developers, control for platform teams ● Built-in observability and usage insights ● Extensible via APIs and GitOps ● Less manual toil—more time enabling teams
