Internal Developer Platform
A curated set of self-service capabilities, workflows, and interfaces that developers use to build, deploy, and operate software.
Motivation
An internal developer platform gives teams consistent access to infrastructure and delivery capabilities without requiring every developer to master every operational detail.
Mental model
It is a product for internal developers, not merely a collection of scripts or a Kubernetes cluster.
Important details
Typical capabilities include templates, environment provisioning, deployment workflows, service ownership, observability, policy guardrails, and documentation.
