When should you use Cosmos DB on Azure? It’s a hard question to answer.

Azure Cosmos DB tries to do it all - which makes it both powerful and, honestly, kind of confusing. The marketing doesn’t help either. Yeah, it’s a flexible database, but before you jump in, you need to understand how it actually works under the hood, what it’ll cost you, and what trade-offs you’re making by choosing it.

I’m going to break all that down. Here’s a roadmap:

Only a few things are certain in the lives of developers and DevOps engineers: taxes, yearly performance reviews, and secret sprawl. While the first two are inevitable, the last one is something that can be managed.

As we keep adding new cloud resources and releasing new applications, the number of secrets we need to manage keeps growing: passwords, API keys, certificates, and more. And as if this isn’t enough, we need to manage secrets across different systems and environments with different teams that need to access them; we end up with duplicates.

In today’s fast-paced digital landscape, organizations are increasingly adopting platform engineering to optimize their software delivery and operations. Gartner predicts that by 2026, 80% of large software engineering organizations will have platform engineering teams to provide reusable services, components, and tools for application delivery. Additionally, by 2027, 80% of large enterprises will leverage platform engineering to scale DevOps initiatives in hybrid cloud environments effectively.

This shift is driven by the rise of cloud adoption, where many enterprises face the challenge of uncoordinated application teams deploying workloads in different ways across various cloud platforms. This siloed approach often results in a lack of standardization, security risks, and operational inefficiencies.

Platform engineering offers a strategic solution to these issues. This guide provides the essential steps to successfully implement platform engineering, from laying the foundation to scaling internal developer platforms (IDPs) for future growth.
