Adobe's journey into building an Internal Developer Platform

In this session, we will share our journey towards building an Adobe IDP for over 5000 developers, current challenges, insights on how we measure productivity, and learnings from one of our recently launched CI/CD products which is an integral part of the IDP.
Talk abstract

Adobe began its Cloud-Native journey back in 2015 and has since then expanded to over 200 multi-tenant clusters deployed across multiple regions and geos. We have an average of >3 million containers with over 200 production deployments each day. All this has been made possible with Adobe's Cloud Platform called Ethos which provides high resiliency, reliability, and robust CI/CD capabilities to Adobe product teams. We are now expanding this platform into an Adobe-wide Internal Developer Platform (IDP) that aims to provide a seamless experience incorporating service creation, deployment, and management to over 5000 developers. The IDP will integrate and provide key capabilities across security, infrastructure provisioning, monitoring, diagnostics and GitOps-based CI/CD tooling using Argo. Adobe is also going through a massive project of modernizing its K8s cluster fleet which will lead to greater resiliency and considerable cost savings each year.

From platform teams to a platform organization: Connecting the dots
A year ago we changed our existing platform approach. Where we (Central Platform Organisation) weren’t actually helping the developers, we needed to connect the dots. However we firstly needed to identify which dots were worthy. In this talk, we share lessons from our platform journey to improve developer experience from a fragmented approach to an integral approach; the developer journey.

Where we went wrong in building a self-service platform on Kubernetes
In building a self-service platform on Kubernetes, we aimed to give application developers autonomy over their own services. But did we go too far in giving developers control? Join us as we explore how to find the right balance between standardization and flexibility when building a self-service platform.
