PLATFORM ENGINEERING

Simplify and Optimize Software Development with Platform Engineering

Enabling developers with a centralized platform makes a world of difference when aiming to build better applications. Platform engineering can help your team reduce costs, get work done securely, and simplify the complexity of varying tools, workflows, and dependencies through automation and governance.

Enable Development Teams with a Self-Service Platform

DevOps can put software development into overdrive, but it also introduces added complexity. With our Platform Engineering services, CDW can help you create an internal developer platform (IDP) that seamlessly allows for continuous integration of new tools and services without compromising performance as your organization grows. With an IDP, you can improve scalability and time-to-market by incorporating re-useable components like libraries, templates and other predefined resources, and also enforce standards and guidelines with automated scanning to verify internal security policies.
