How Platform Engineering, AI, and IDPs Are Reshaping Enterprise Scale Software Delivery

The 2026 State of the Industry report gives Platform Engineering leaders a strategic, data rich view of how engineering organisations are evolving under cloud native complexity, AI driven automation, and rising expectations for developer productivity. This 97-page report will give you actionable insight into the future of enterprise engineering.

You'll learn:

• Why Platform Engineering is becoming the backbone of enterprise software delivery, replacing fragmented DevOps execution with product centric platforms.
 • How Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs) reduce cognitive load, standardise workflows, and accelerate delivery across multi cloud and hybrid environments.
 • Where AI and agent based automation will reshape developer experience, from code generation to autonomous remediation.
 • How leading enterprises structure platform teams, allocate budgets, and govern golden paths at scale.
 • What converging with SRE means for your operating model, reliability posture, and developer enablement strategy.

Designed for platform leaders who need to benchmark their organisation, justify investment, and stay ahead in an AI first engineering landscape.
