Coté
I speak a lot at conferences, internal events, and meetings here and there for work. Most the talks I give are listed on my sessionize profile page, but you can always ask for something new. You can see a selection of recordings of my past talks here. Some of the slides are available if you like to collect such stuff. Usually, I’m talking on the topic of doing better software at large organizations. Many of these talks are based on and draw from my books. More: cote.io
Sessions
Building your own internal developer platform can seem attractive, but it's a risky proposition. In a platform as a product approach, when you build it, you own it, and now you're in the business of developing a product instead of your actual business. In this talk, drawing from 10 years of platform engineering case studies of large organizations, Coté will go over seven risks of building your own platform: expansive scopes, underestimating cost, project mindsets, death by customization, skills, security and compliance, resume-driven development. You can learn from the many people who've suffered these risks already and, hopefully, avoid them yourself.
We'll do a live recording of Software Defined Interviews/Software Defined Talk.
