- What can cloud architects and development teams can do in terms of architectural frameworks and tools while developing applications for IaaS and PaaS platforms?
- Have you considered all factors in designing, implementing, and operating custom developed systems, platform integration, and application modernization?
- Is your current platform providing the actionable reporting everyone needs to do the jobs better and accomplish your shared vision/mission?
- Can your organization consider specific clients in your industry as well as the types of strategies used to execute successful campaigns?
- Does the tool allow the user to modify spurious values in the data set or perform other operations designed for data cleansing?
- What kinds of observability tooling do you have to make sure that things are staying up and running and the system is healthy?
- Are there developer tools that engineers can leverage to make implementation easy and seamless within existing systems?
- Do you remember seeing any information about the privacy or security practices of the device at the time of purchase?
Complete the self assessment, on your own or with a team in a workshop setting. Use the workbook together with the self assessment requirements spreadsheet:

Results
With this Three Step process you will have all the tools you need for any Platform Engineering project with this in-depth Platform Engineering Toolkit.
In using the Toolkit you will be better able to:
- Diagnose Platform Engineering projects, initiatives, organizations, businesses and processes using accepted diagnostic standards and practices
- Implement evidence-based best practice strategies aligned with overall goals
- Integrate recent advances in Platform Engineering and put process design strategies into practice according to best practice guidelines
Defining, designing, creating, and implementing a process to solve a business challenge or meet a business objective is the most valuable role; In EVERY company, organization and department.
Unless you are talking a one-time, single-use project within a business, there should be a process. Whether that process is managed and implemented by humans, AI, or a combination of the two, it needs to be designed by someone with a complex enough perspective to ask the right questions. Someone capable of asking the right questions and step back and say, 'What are we really trying to accomplish here? And is there a different way to look at it?'
This Toolkit empowers people to do just that - whether their title is entrepreneur, manager, consultant, (Vice-)President, CxO etc... - they are the people who rule the future. They are the person who asks the right questions to make Platform Engineering investments work better.
This Platform Engineering All-Inclusive Toolkit enables You to be that person.
