Description
Transform enterprise software delivery by mastering modern platform engineering and integrating advanced generative AI capabilities into scalable business platforms.
Organizations today are under constant pressure to deliver software faster, improve reliability, adopt artificial intelligence, and reduce operational complexity. However, disconnected tools, scaling difficulties, and limited developer support often prevent teams from achieving true efficiency and innovation.
This practical guide from Dr. Mark Peters and Dr. Gautham Pallapa provides a comprehensive roadmap for designing, building, and managing modern enterprise platforms. It explores how organizations can create scalable internal developer platforms, automate operations with AI, improve developer experiences, and optimize software delivery processes to create continuous business value.
Through proven frameworks, real-world examples, and practical case studies, you’ll learn how to overcome common platform challenges and establish a strong foundation for long-term success. The book covers essential topics such as platform architecture, self-service development, automation, security, compliance, observability, cultural transformation, and strategic alignment. It also explores future trends and predictions that will help technology leaders prepare for the next evolution of platform engineering.
By the end of this book, you’ll have the knowledge and strategies needed to design intelligent, resilient platforms that accelerate innovation, improve operational efficiency, and deliver measurable business results.
