Accelerating Microservice Delivery: A Framework for Enterprise-Grade Internal Developer Platforms
Venu Kalluru · 2025
This paper introduces a comprehensive framework designed to mitigate the inherent operational complexities of modern microservice architectures through advanced platform engineering principles. It systematically details the foundational elements and strategic considerations for architecting robust Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) that foster standardized yet adaptable development and deployment environments. The contribution identifies critical best practices for IDP implementation, addressing challenges associated with integration, governance, and user adoption. Through insights derived from industry paradigms and practical deployments, the paper demonstrates how effective platform engineering significantly enhances software delivery velocity, elevates system reliability, and optimizes the developer experience within enterprise settings. This work provides actionable guidance for organizations aiming to establish high-performing, scalable microservice ecosystems.
