Mia-Platform mentioned in the Gartner® Hype Cycle for Software Engineering, 2025

18 August 2025 – Mia-Platform has been mentioned in the Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Software Engineering, 2025 by Dave Micko and Joachim Herschmann as a Sample Vendor for Internal Developer Platform.

According to the Gartner report, “An internal developer platform (IDP) is a set of tools, services, automations and information maintained as a product by a dedicated platform team. The IDP orchestrates with other platforms to perform requested actions simplifying the developer experience. An IDP is designed to support engineers by abstracting underlying complexity of tools and processes. Internal developer portals typically serve as the storefront for these platforms as part of a platform engineering capability”.

“Software engineering leaders need to invest in IDPs to simplify and minimize the overhead of software engineering at scale. Digitally empowered enterprises increasingly rely on complex, heterogeneous and distributed custom-built software that rapidly changes based on customer and internal demands. However, software engineering teams often struggle to deliver these changes promptly due to poor or variable developer experience across the software development life cycle (SDLC)”.

“IDPs abstract the complexity of underlying infrastructure management and maintenance. IDPs also increase the product teams’ ability to deliver customer value consistently, reliably, and repeatably. They make security, compliance and controls more consistent and simplify the wide variety of tools used to deliver software. As part of platform engineering, IDPs improve the developer experience, thus increasing productivity while reducing employee frustration and attrition.”
