InfraCloud’s AAA Framework for Platform Engineering
-
Assess
Assessing the current state & usage of tools and practices in place is the first step in understanding the goals of the platform that will add value. InfraCloud uses InfraCloud Platform Engineering Questionnaire & Assessment framework.
-
Adopt
One of the key criteria of success for any platform is how the user feels about it. Adopt phase ensures a “Product Market Fit” for the platform and works with engineering teams to evangelize & increase adoption.
-
Accelerate
Once adoption has succeeded in a few areas and with a few teams, the goal would be to scale the process of assessing, adopting platforms across teams.
