From 8 days to 8 minutes

Learn how the largest private-sector bank in Portugal automated the entire app and infra dependencies lifecycle with a single file, providing a curated self-service experience for our software developers.
Talk abstract

Learn how a company in the financial services industry addressed its developer and SREs productivity challenges by orchestrating tools like Flux, KubeVela, and Crossplane to create a unified developer experience while ensuring compliance in a highly regulated market.

Our implementation focuses on describing what each application is and what IT services they depend on, leaving it up to the platform to decide how and where apps and resources are instantiated.

We'll show our initial design, the challenges we found while building our v1, and how we plan to keep improving this platform.

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.
