Kratix - The Platform as a Product Framework • Colin Humphreys • PlatformCon 2022

To succeed in delivering a platform that is fit for purpose for your business, application teams and platform teams need to collaborate to understand the highest-priority capabilities, and these capabilities need to be delivered on-demand.
Kratix is a framework that enables co-creation of capabilities by providing a clear contract between application and platform teams through the definition and creation of “Promises”. Unlike other frameworks and tooling which focus exclusively on application-developer experience, Kratix focuses on empowering platform engineers to build better platforms.
In this session we will demonstrate how we are:
- Deploying a platform-as-a-product.
- Utilising multiple Kubernetes clusters.
- Installing a sample "Promise" to deliver a bespoke experience.
