summary

Shows a working Internal Developer Platform built on OpenShift with Red Hat Developer Hub (Backstage downstream), using Tekton, GitLab/Jenkins, Quay, DevSpaces and Argo CD; templates are YAML-driven and bootstrap repos and CI/CD automatically, produce signed container images and SBoMs, run SonaQube and image scanning, and enforce image signatures at deploy time. Cites measured gains like ~4x deployment frequency and reduced onboarding wait times. Demo surfaces the template/blueprint YAML, the dynamic plugin configuration (former Janus approach) and a live bootstrap pipeline.
