Platform Engineering: Creating Scalable and Resilient Systems
summary
Automated templates create resource groups, Cosmos DB, Key Vault, user‑assigned identities and federated workload identities, then deploy apps into a shared AKS cluster with the Key Vault CSI secret injected into pods — demos show the pod running and the connection string appearing as an environment variable. CI/CD runs from a PR through Terraform + GitHub Actions or via a management plane using Crossplane + Argo, environments self‑serve via Azure deployment environments, and Copilot can surface GitHub Actions to run tests or chaos faults.
