Enabling developer autonomy: the Atlas way to shift left
summary
ShareChat builds an internal developer platform called Atlas that abstracts multi cloud resource and access workflows and integrates Backstage, Temporal and Crossplane with Vault and a Slackbot. It claims to cut support tickets to ~10–20%, enforces labels for cost allocation, and delivers time‑bound, resource‑level access. A Moj app shipped in one week is an early product story; Atlas is built iteratively, automates resource and secret provisioning, and shows a drastic drop in manual toil and clearer auditability.
