Building a platform for thousands of bots in the cloud

We share our journey of building an Internal Developer Platform on AWS, which started over eight years at Ocado Technology. From e-commerce to warehouse robotics, we have a wide variety of workloads that developers run. In this talk you’ll learn the key components of a successful platform, the vital metrics every platform engineer should know, and how we’ve used managed cloud services to do the heavy lifting.‍
