Platform engineering has to be approached from a socio-technical perspective, and shaped by all stakeholders, not just developers, Sergiu Petean said in his talk Driving the Future of Insurance through Platform Engineering. Platform success depends on written principles that endure change while embracing change as the main design force, to enable teams to build, run, and release software.

Jimmy Morzaria discusses the evolution of Stripe’s database tier to support 5 million QPS with 5.5 nines of reliability. He explains the architecture of DocDB and shares how Stripe leverages a custom zero-downtime data movement platform to perform horizontal sharding, version upgrades, and multi-tenant migrations - all while maintaining the strict consistency required for global commerce.

Dropbox recently explained how it improved storage efficiency in Magic Pocket, the company's internal immutable blob store for storing user files at scale, by redesigning compaction strategies to reclaim space from severely underfilled storage volumes. The system now periodically reorganizes valid data into new volumes, allowing old, partially used ones to be cleared and reused.
