Scaling Developer Self-Service: Kyverno Policies for Inclusive Platform Engineering
summary
Kyverno policy automation enforces, mutates, and generates resources so developers deploy safely without blockers: policies inject resource limits and add network policies or sidecars, validate manifests, and emit reports. Real results: 78% reduction in failed deployments and 65% higher junior-developer confidence after mutation-driven defaults. Platform pattern: start with mutation policies, use generate for missing infrastructure, and iterate on policy reports and adoption metrics (failed deployments, self-service adoption, time-to-production) to shift shadow IT into governed self-service.
