Compelling Reasons for a Pre-Integrated Internal Development Platform: Faster Application Delivery, Less Complexity, and Enhanced Productivity
Abstract: This white paper, titled "Compelling Reasons for a Pre-Integrated Internal Development Platform: Faster Application Delivery, Less Complexity, and Enhanced Productivity," authored by Torsten Volk, Managing Research Director at EMA, delves into the strategic benefits of pre-integrated Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs). In a rapidly evolving digital marketplace, swift software development and deployment are crucial for competitiveness. IDPs provide self-service access to essential tools, reducing developers' time spent on non-coding tasks. The API-centric model of IDPs simplifies access to resources, enhances productivity, and ensures compliance with security standards. The paper highlights how pre-integrated IDPs streamline development, promote consistency, and reduce complexity, leading to faster, more secure, and cost-effective application delivery. Additionally, it explores the role of key IT personas in establishing IDPs and the advantages of adopting pre-integrated solutions over DIY approaches. The VMware Tanzu Platform is presented as a prime example of how pre-integrated IDPs can support hybrid cloud consistency and simplify microservices management, ultimately enabling organizations to innovate efficiently and maintain a competitive edge. |
