Platform Engineering with Cory O’Daniel
Platform engineering is difficult to get right, and in the age of DevOps and cloud computing, software developers increasingly serve as platform engineers while they’re building their applications. This can be an engineering challenge because organizations often require their platforms to provide fine-grained control and compliance management.
Cory O’Daniel is the CEO and Co-Founder of Massdriver, which he started in 2021 with the goal of helping engineering and operations teams build internal developer platforms. Cory’s company was in the 2022 Y Combinator class, and he has been hard at work developing his platform. He joins the show today to talk about how he thinks about platform engineering, and the challenge of abstracting away infrastructure.
