Summary:

Accelerate delivery and reduce complexity by creating composable platforms that scale securely, empower teams, and adapt to change across cloud-native, multi-cloud, and hybrid environments Enterprises today struggle to bridge the costly gap between fast-moving application development and the strict requirements of infrastructure operations. Tool sprawl, ad hoc Infrastructure as Code (IaC), and over-engineered Internal Developer Platforms often create more problems than they solve. Building Platforms That Scale offers a new path. Grounded in Fractal Architecture, it introduces a practical model for platform engineering that applies principles from Domain-Driven Design (DDD), DevOps and SRE, and component-based software engineering to modern infrastructure as code. Discover how to build cloud-native platforms that are modular, composable, and reusable. Platforms that evolve with your business, support event-driven architectures, and operate seamlessly across multi-cloud environments. This book equips CTOs, platform engineers, and technology leaders with actionable frameworks to build platforms that drive velocity, compliance, and resilience. Understand the foundations: Explore the core principles of Fractal Architecture, composability, and platform engineering in the context of cloud-native and multi-cloud systems Build effective Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs): Design IDPs that give developers self-service, production-ready environments to deploy infrastructure securely and autonomously Empower Ops Teams: Enable infrastructure and operations teams to create reusable blueprints, governed interfaces, and automated controls for consistent governance and security Apply real-world lessons: Explore case studies of platform success and failure across industries including finance, retail, and software Support Platform Teams: Define reusable templates and governance models that scale across business units and cloud providers Embed day-2 operations: Bake monitoring, disaster recovery, compliance, and updates directly into your platforms design Build platforms that scale securely, enable autonomy, and deliver lasting business impact, across any cloud.
