Backstage Con North America 2022

What does a Heroku-like developer experience look like on an Internal Developer Platform built with cloud-native tools? The answer to this question was elusive for a long time. It's now coming into view as many organizations start thinking about how they can allow developers to deploy to their platforms from Backstage. In this talk, Taras Mankovski will describe the five deployment use cases that an Internal Developer Platform built with Backstage should support to provide a Heroku-like developer experience. We'll cover the following use cases, 1. Creating a service that automatically deploys to the platform 2. Editing secrets and automatically redeploying the service 3. Deploying a branch to a new environment 4. Accessing logs 5. Seeing resources that a service consumes For each use case, Taras will present a solution that a Backstage adopter can implement with existing Backstage plugins.
