In this episode, Pavlo Baron, Co-founder & CEO of Platform Engineering Labs, shares how Formae is transforming platform engineering by replacing brittle YAML/JSON configs with smart, codified abstractions. Built on an agent-based system, Formae simplifies collaboration, reduces toil, and bridges the gap between developers and ops ushering in a faster, more reliable era of infrastructure management. He explains how Formae enables granular, patch-based changes to minimize blast radius and why modern infrastructure tools must evolve for speed, collaboration, and simplicity. It’s a fresh take on platform engineering designed for the realities of today’s distributed systems and teams.
