Synopsis

A GOOD PLATFORM IS CHOSEN, NOT IMPOSED. Golden paths that teams actually want to use.

Eleven teams, sixty services and an average of eighteen days to put a new service into production. That is where Points Club, the fictional company that runs through this course book, begins.

Over 10 chapters, you build Trail, Points Club's internal platform, treating the platform as a product: with users, a paved road, versions, support and adoption metrics.

You will learn to: map the teams' needs and decide what the platform offers first; create templates, self-service provisioning and reusable pipelines; build a service catalog with owners and documentation; build security and governance into the default path without blocking teams; operate the platform and measure whether it really speeds up the people who use it.

4 case studies, 20 diagrams, more than 30 labs (one on AWS, with cost alerts and cleanup, and four in Python on your own machine), checklists and exercises with an answer key.

About the author: André Romão Quinhoneiro has worked in IT since 2003. He is a DevOps Engineer at Broto, where he takes care of AWS infrastructure and information security. He holds a bachelor's degree in Computer Science and a graduate specialization in Cloud Computing Projects.

Sou André Romão Quinhoneiro e trabalho com tecnologia desde 2003. Hoje sou DevOps Engineer no Broto, em São Paulo, onde cuido da infraestrutura na AWS, da segurança da informação e do programa de LGPD da empresa.

Sou bacharel em Ciência da Computação (UNINOVE) e pós-graduado em Projetos de Cloud Computing (Descomplica). Também sou membro da Cloud Security Alliance e do IBSEC.

Sou autor da coleção “Da Jornada à Prática”, de livros-curso sobre DevSecOps, arquitetura cloud, Platform Engineering, SRE, segurança, FinOps e IA aplicada à operação. Todos os livros partem de cenários reais, com diagramas, laboratórios e exercícios com gabarito. Também escrevo a série “Mistérios de Isabela Souza”, de mistérios bilíngues em inglês e português para quem quer aprender inglês lendo.

Meus livros são para quem quer sair da teoria e entender como as decisões técnicas são tomadas no dia a dia.
