Modern software engineering is quickly becoming unsustainable. We embraced cloud native architectures to gain business agility, but the complexity of distributed systems, modular architectures, parallel roadmaps, and atomic organizations is rapidly taking over.We are slowing down again, while costs rapidly rise and governance becomes more difficult by the day.It’s not a matter of assets or talent: we have all the resources that we need, but they are hidden, invisible, often impossible to discover, untangle and capitalize.Our path is right: we just need to shed the light on it. In this chapter, “Unleash the Invisible,” we will uncover how Platforms, empowered by AI, can help reveal the hidden treasures within our systems. By describing Everything as Code, these platforms give us a live, actionable map of resources and provide the AI context necessary to supercharge our productivity.Mark your calendar and join the community of Platform Builders.It’s time to make software engineering sustainable again. It’s time to unleash the invisible!
