Beyond K8S - Maturing Your Platform Engineering Initiative
summary
Uses the CNCF Platform Maturity Model v1 to map concrete outcomes across investment, adoption, interfaces, operations and measurement and recommends plotting current state then taking iterative experiments. Gives an enterprise example aiming to onboard 20+ teams in 12–18 months toward level 3, needs C‑level buy‑in, dedicated funding, a shift from project to product, hiring product managers and devrel, doing technical due diligence and choosing tenancy models carefully. Stresses adoption pain points and the value of enablement teams to get platforms actually used.
