Platform Engineering 2.0: Evolution, Not a Reset with Pankaj Gupta

<p>In this RedMonk conversation, Pankaj Gupta, Senior Director of Product Marketing, VCF Division, at Broadcom, chats Platform Engineering in the AI era with Stephen O'Grady. Gupta explains that more than 90% of organizations run an internal platform, but despite widespread adoption, Gupta thinks most platforms are hitting two ceilings. They were built, in his phrase, "AI blind," and they were built for exactly one user, the developer. AI has already moved the bottleneck from writing code to getting it into production, and the user base is about to change shape.  Also in this episode: when golden paths harden into golden cages, why FinOps and security can no longer be bolted on, and Gupta's five pillars for platform engineering 2.0.</p><p>The RedMonk conversation is sponsored by Broadcom.<br /><br />Show notes: <a href="https://redmonk.com/videos/pankaj-gupta/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">https://redmonk.com/videos/pankaj-gupta/</a></p><p>Chapters</p><p>00:04 Introduction to Sponsorships</p><p>00:08 Introduction to Platform Engineering</p><p>02:52 Current State and Challenges of Platform Engineering</p><p>05:47 The Evolution of Platform Engineering</p><p>08:33 AI's Impact on Platform Engineering</p><p>11:23 The Rise of Agent Personas</p><p>14:52 Five Pillars of Modern Platform Engineering</p><p>17:47 Next Steps for Platform Engineers</p>
