Watch a 43-minute conference talk from GOTO Copenhagen 2024 where Head of Scale at Equal Experts Steve Smith explores common pitfalls in platform engineering and provides practical solutions. Learn how to avoid and fix three critical mistakes: overcomplicating platforms with unnecessary power tools like Kafka and Kubernetes, allowing technological chaos through lack of standardization, and creating friction through ticket-based team interactions. Discover why treating platform engineering as a project rather than a product leads to scaling problems, and gain actionable insights on building internal engineering platforms that truly enable business value. Through real-world examples from years of platform leadership experience, understand how to create platforms that help teams deliver outcomes faster and more safely while fostering a healthy engineering culture.
