LEARN HOW TO BUILD PLATFORMS WITH SYNTASSO
The Syntasso team have been building and operating platforms for over a decade, and so we know that continual learning and training are essential to drive successful outcomes.
We've assembled this learning hub to share the latest platform engineering education content, including best practices, technology overviews, and experience reports.
Whether you learn by reading, listening, watching, or getting hands-on with the tech, we've got you covered!
Core Platform Engineering Topics
Platform as a Product (PaaP) is an approach where internal platforms are treated as evolving products with defined users (developers, operations teams) and lifecycles.
Platform engineering is the practice of designing, building, managing, and maintaining platforms for cloud-native software engineering organisations.
A platform orchestrator is a crucial layer in platform engineering, focusing on managing and optimising platform components, infrastructure, and application workflows.
An internal developer platform (IDP) is a solution or tool that enables developers to access everything they need to develop, deploy and operate applications.
Platform decay refers to the gradual deterioration of a platform’s efficiency and effectiveness over time. It is an essential concept in platform engineering, often overlooked until it becomes a significant problem.

GET HANDS ON WITH KRATIX
CHOOSE SERVICES TEAMS ALREADY LOVE
Enable teams to ship software quicker by composing existing applications, services, and infrastructure components available as Promises in the Kratix Marketplace.
Deploy Redis, AWS S3 buckets, cert-manager, and more within minutes.
SELF-SERVE VIA API, PORTAL, OR GITOPS
Get value from your platform by using the most appropriate user experience for the task at hand or the user's requirements.
Integrate services using APIs, deploy apps via a portal, and configure infrastructure using GitOps.
FREE ENGINEERS TO CREATE & SHARE
Enable multiple teams to co-create your platform using the popular inner source model of contribution.
Centalised platform engineering teams can source, test, and integrate services from across your organisation.
TAME THE FLEET: AUTOMATE WORKFLOWS
Encode and share policy, guardrails, and compliance requirements in Workflows.
Centralised platform teams can ensure policy is enforced globally, manage upgrades, and correct configuration drift as the underlying compute and cluster fleet scales.
