Kubernetes Unpacked 033: Platform Engineering And The CNCF White Paper

In today’s episode, Michael and Kristina catch up with Saim Safdar to chat about a recent white paper on platform engineering from the Cloud Native Computing Foundation (CNCF). Saim dives into not only the CNCF whitepaper, but how Platform Engineering should be thought about from a Kubernetes perspective in 2023 and beyond.
