Backstage: From Spotify to CNCF Standard 🎥

From an internal tool at Spotify to the global open source standard for platform engineering, this is the journey of Backstage.

In this CNCF documentary, we explore the evolution of one of the fastest-growing projects in the cloud native ecosystem. The film traces the transition of Backstage from an internal developer portal to a critical framework within the Cloud Native Computing Foundation. By providing a unified developer experience, Backstage streamlines complex infrastructure and minimizes setup time, enabling safer and more efficient organizational scaling.

This documentary celebrates the platform engineering teams, cloud native practitioners, and developers who have turned Backstage into a de facto industry standard for building internal development platforms.
