DevOps meets reality
summary
Claim: a small platform team that builds an opinionated developer product actually makes DevOps work. It provides Platform Engineering as a service: Kubernetes runtime, centralized logging into Elasticsearch and Kibana, Grafana zero investment dashboards, Backstage templates and GitOps via Argo CD. Aim for the paved road that solves ~80% of use cases. Teams adopt it because it is easier and then own exceptions; the platform must be maintained or everything breaks, but real deployments and dashboards show the approach reduces reinvention and speeds delivery.
