This week I was answering several customer questions about subscriptions and had some internal topics. Not much to mention here apart from… another super exciting and new Workshop around Developer Hub: Platform Engineering:

Developer Hub - Platform Engineering workshop

First things first: The workshop content can be found here.

This workshop is designed for Platform Engineers who are in charge of:

  • Creating standards for technologies that are used across environments (Development, Testing, Production)
  • Defining processes that maximize Development Teams’ efficiency, by unburdening them from platform details.

This workshop is built in a learn-by-example style, where we show you how to create, set up, and manage an IDP using Red Hat Developer Hub. The workshop is opinionated and should be viewed as an example of how to approach things. As always, make sure you, as a Platform Engineer, build what your customers (Development Teams) need by soliciting early feedback to ensure you’re on the right track.

Red Hat Developer Hub Platform Engineering Workshop Content Overview

Beyond the introductory text, there’s not much to add. I went through the workshop myself this week, and it’s very promising, but unfortunately not completely finished yet. A section on security and compliance is planned for the future, but it’s very promising in and of itself. You learn a lot; even if it’s an opinionated view, it’s a complete overview, which allows you to get a feel for the application and its use.
