Bravo on the content. I'm a member of a newly created Platform Engineering team tasked with evaluating and creating an Internal Developer Platform. Your video series should be required watching for new Platform teams. You organize the content extremely well, and the information is solid. As a new platform engineer, I started the process with a task "Evaluate and stand up a IDP". Sounded like clicking Next -> Next -> Next -> Finish. I didn't understand the nuances to consider, and the integrations I might need to get put in. Your video series (especially Ep. 3), is a God send. I appreciate your work, and I will be sharing this with my peers both internally and in my city's various user groups. Cheers!

thanks for the great series! could you please help with questions: Does an IDP (eg. Backstage) make sense to an IT service provider organization? Also, it seems Backstage is associated with managing a single organization's software components, while a software service company has to handle multiple client projects at a time, is it still relevant?

All in for that efficiency
