Creating an IDP – From Zero to Production in 5 Minutes with Backstage + ArgoCD
In this talk, we’ll explore how to build an internal developer platform to increase the productivity of the teams and reduce the friction of creating new applications integrated automatically with all the platform services of the organization. We’ll see the benefits of using Backstage templates to speed up the creation and configuration of new applications with all the related infrastructure and resources (CI/CD pipelines, integration with monitoring tools, integration with ArgoCD, etc). We will demonstrate how easy is to follow a “production first” strategy with a practical demo of creating a new application that will be released automatically in production in a few minutes.
