Platform & Infrastructure

Scope

Covers

• Platform engineering / “paved roads”: shared capabilities that multiple product teams reuse
• Infrastructure quality attributes: reliability, performance, privacy/safety, operability, cost
• Scalability planning: capacity limits, leading indicators, “doomsday clock” triggers, sequencing
• Instrumentation strategy: server-side event tracking, data quality, observability gaps
• Discoverability architecture for web platforms (optional): sitemap + internal linking

When to use

• “Create a platform infrastructure plan to increase feature velocity without repeating work.”
• “Turn reliability/performance/privacy goals into concrete SLOs and an execution roadmap.”
• “We’re approaching scaling limits—define triggers and the next infra projects.”
• “Our analytics is messy—design a server-side tracking plan and event contract.”
• “For a large web property, define sitemap + internal-linking requirements for crawlability.”
