This centralized platform has revolutionized the way our development teams interact with tools, services, and resources, leading to substantial improvements in efficiency and innovation. Ericsson’s DX journey exemplifies the transformative power of a portal based on Spotify's Backstage platform, in driving efficiency, innovation, and business success. We have harnessed automation, standardization, and collaboration to empower our teams and accelerate delivery by reducing cognitive load and streamlining workflows, as we create an environment where developers can thrive. This talk will share key lessons from our journey and explore how we’re driving adoption of our IDP through both top-down leadership and grassroots engagement—ensuring that every team, at every level, is part of the transformation.
