## CNCF Platform maturity model
|
||
|
||
* Was donated to the CNCF by Syntasso
|
||
* Constantly evolving since 1.0 in November 2023
|
||
|
||
### Overview
|
||
|
||
> Entire matrix is available from CNCF
|
||
|
||
* Levels (from tactical to strategic)
|
||
* Provisional
|
||
* Operational
|
||
* Scalable
|
||
* Optimizing
|
||
* Dimensions:
|
||
* Investment: How are funds/staff allocated to platform capabilities
|
||
* Adoption: How and why do users discover this platform
|
||
* Interfaces: How do users interact with and consume platform capabilities
|
||
* Operations: How are platforms and capabilities planned, prioritized, developed and maintained
|
||
* Measurement: What is the process for gathering and incorporating feedback/learning?
|
||
|
||
## Goals
|
||
|
||
* Understand
|
||
* Outcomes & Practices
|
||
* Where are you at
|
||
* Limits & Opportunities
|

||
## Typical Journeys
|
||
|
||
### Steps of the journey
|
||
|
||
1. What are your goals and limitations
|
||
2. What is my current landscape
|
||
3. Plan baby steps & iterate
|
||
|
||
### Scenarios
|
||
|
||
* Bad: I want to improve my k8s platform
|
||
* Good: Scaling an enterprise COE (Center Of Excellence)
|
||
* What: Onboard 20 Teams within 20 Months and enforce 8 security regulations
|
||
* Where: We have a dedicated team of centrally funded people
|
||
* Lay the foundation: More funding for more, larger teams -> Switch from Project to platform mindset
|
||
* Do your technical Due diligence in parallel
|
||
|
||
## Key Lessons
|
||
|
||
* Know what your ultimate goals and constraints are
|
||
* Know your landscape
|
||
* Plan in baby steps and iterate
|
||
* Lay the foundation for building the right thing and not just anything
|
||
* Don't forget to do your technical dd in parallel
|
||
|
||
## Conclusion
|
||
|
||
* Maturity model is a helpful part but not the entire plan
