How CyberArk reduces cognitive load with platform engineering

In this talk, you will learn of CyberArk's platform engineering group's journey over four years, from its initial humble start to its internal recognition as the company's golden path for new Serverless applications. 
Talk abstract

About four years ago, CyberArk embraced Serverless technology on AWS for its new business applications. They soon learned new technologies and tools bring new challenges. CyberArk created the platform engineering group to face these challenges, reduce developer cognitive load, and enable developers to focus on what matters most; the business domain.

In this talk, as the group architect I will share the group’s journey, from its initial humble start to its internal recognition as the company’s golden path for new Serverless applications. In addition, I will discuss the goals, responsibilities, and challenges the group faces and how it tackles them.

Principal Software Architect, CyberArk
