Techstrong Group is proud to announce the launch of PlatformEngineering.com, the latest addition to its suite of industry-leading media platforms. As part of the Techstrong family, PlatformEngineering.com is set to become an invaluable resource for the growing Platform Engineering community.

Techstrong Group, based in Boca Raton, is an omniversal media company covering IT industries and practices that are re-shaping the world of technology. Specifically, DevOps, cloud native, cybersecurity, digital transformation and generative AI are the communities we live in. Techstrong Group is the home to a portfolio of tech-focused education sites and media outlets.

This new site complements Techstrong’s existing ecosystem, which includes DevOps.com, Security Boulevard, Cloud Native Now, Techstrong AI, Techstrong ITSM, Digital CxO, and Techstrong TV.

Alan Shimel, Founder of TechStrong Group

“We waited until the Platform Engineering movement matured, observing its growth and evolution,” said Techstrong Group founder Alan Shimel. “With this site, we’re providing a ‘big tent’ for the community—a space where practitioners, enthusiasts, and thought leaders can share, learn, and grow together. Whether you see Platform Engineering as an extension of DevOps, an evolution, or something entirely new, there’s a place for you here.”

PlatformEngineering.com offers a wealth of resources to help you navigate the evolving landscape of Platform Engineering. From expert insights to practical tools, our site empowers engineers, architects, and IT leaders to stay ahead of emerging trends and best practices. The site will serve as the home for content addressing the critical role Platform Engineering plays in modern software development and operations. By focusing on building Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) and reducing cognitive load for developers, Platform Engineering enables faster, safer, and more scalable software delivery.

Shimel emphasizes that Platform Engineering is one of many disciplines shaping the Software Development Lifecycle (SDLC), alongside Agile, DevOps, DevSecOps, ITSM, AI, and more. Together, these frameworks form the backbone of the “modern software factory,” which is poised for an AI-driven revolution.

PlatformEngineering.com continues Techstrong’s tradition of identifying and nurturing niche tech communities. From the launch of DevOps.com over a decade ago to its early exploration of AI and cloud-native technologies, Techstrong remains a trusted voice in emerging tech fields. With the launch of PlatformEngineering.com, the group aims to spotlight the role of Platform Engineering as a vital enabler of digital transformation, bringing together a community to drive innovation and collaboration.

The TechStrong Group invites members of the community to actively participate by consuming and contributing content on PlatformEngineering.com. Writers, experts, and enthusiasts can submit articles or share viewpoints via editor@platformengineering.com. Techstrong is also welcoming sponsorships and partnerships to grow the site further.
