About this event

In the dynamic software development arena, teams face pressure to deliver high-quality apps quickly, often burdened by repetitive tasks. Platform engineering, through Internal Developer Portals (IDP), automates infrastructure management and provides pre-configured tools, enhancing workflows. Venkatesh Kunchenapalli's role at Wipro, USA, demonstrates significant improvements in developer efficiency via IDPs. The setup automates GitHub, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud infrastructure for Java, Node.js, and Python, integrating Terraform, Docker, and Kubernetes. Results show a 40-50% reduction in manual project setup hours, boosting application delivery speed. For example, web development hours dropped from 200 to 120, achieving a 40% productivity gain. Furthermore, IDPs have raised developer satisfaction from 60 to 85, a 42% increase. This system offers continuous updates and insights, proving platform engineering's essential role in advancing development efficiency.
