Gartner® Top Strategic Technology Trends for 2023: Platform Engineering

Companies of all sizes use cloud to deliver new value to their customers. By using a cloud operating model, companies are able to maximize agility, reliability, and security to deliver superior business outcomes. In order to get there, organizations are creating centralized platform teams to help scale their cloud adoption.

According to Gartner, "By 2026, 80% of software engineering organizations will establish platform teams as internal providers of reusable services, components and tools for application delivery." At HashiCorp, we believe platform teams can be a significant force multiplier for the organization; the goal is for an organization’s collective cloud best practices — including security and compliance requirements — to be “baked in” to the shared platform. This model yields greater operational efficiency and developer productivity.

Learn from Gartner what IT leaders can do to adopt the platform engineering discipline in their organizations with complimentary access to the research.
