Okteto

The new DX Core 4 framework has been a critical tool for our customers leading Developer Experience initiatives. We recently spoke with one of them, and their results are incredible: ?? A 40-point improvement in their DX score after implementing Okteto. ? 8 hours saved per developer—every single week. That’s the power of better development workflows. When platform teams invest in Developer Experience, the impact scales across the entire organization: faster delivery, happier developers, and real business value. #DeveloperExperience #DX #PlatformEngineering #Productivity #DevEx

Shipping software faster isn’t just about speed—it’s about empowering engineers to innovate without being held back by toil. Modern teams need environments tailored to their specific needs, allowing them to focus on what matters most: delivering value. One of our customers shared how they’ve transformed their process with Okteto: "Katana has evolved beyond the limitations of traditional local development environments, where the entire ecosystem was once hosted on a single PC or localhost setup. Today, engineers can spin up specific environments tailored to the areas of the product they need to work on, significantly improving development efficiency and reducing resource overhead. Our partnership with Okteto has been key in this transformation." This is the power of modern development environments—by eliminating bottlenecks, reducing resource overhead, and designing workflows, teams unlock new levels of productivity and creativity. Tedious local environments are so last year! At Okteto, we’re here to help teams reimagine what’s possible. ?? Let's chat! https://bit.ly/4goLOLX

We asked Engineering and Platform Leaders when they knew it was time to invest in DevX intiatives. Stefana Muller hits some key points we couldn't agree more with. 1?? Is your company ready to scale? Onboarding new developers needs to be a priority. Rapidly growing startups need systems that eliminate bottlenecks and empower developers from day one. 2?? Reducing incidents is critical. The ability to create full environments for testing and development supports the shift-left strategy we all aim for, catching issues earlier in the lifecycle. 3?? Can you ensure quality at scale? Giving developers access to environments that mirror production enables better testing, higher confidence, and more reliable deployments to move a growing business forward, faster.

The ultimate goal is shipping software faster. But, it's equally important to ensure the right feedback reaches your teams at the right time. Modern teams need tools that connect every stakeholder in the development process. One of our customers recently shared how they are doing both: "We use Okteto daily, and it drastically shortened our cycles. Everyone from QA engineers to business stakeholders is now in the loop on all the changes and can approve them or provide feedback before it hits our staging environment." This is the magic of efficient development workflows—when teams can iterate faster, involve diverse stakeholders, and keep the highest bar for quality, they not only accelerate delivery but also build better products. At Okteto, this is our goal - enable teams by breaking down silos and ensuring collaboration is at the heart of innovation. ?? Read more reviews on G2: https://bit.ly/3ZHMhC0

Humble brag: we're really proud of what we shipped this year and how we helped our customers to streamline dev workflows, optimize their cloud resources, and accelerate developer productivity in big ways. This blog post was a great reflection exercise of not only how much the team shipped, but the impact their contributions have for our customers ?? Check out the blog and let us know what you'd like to see from Okteto in 2025! https://lnkd.in/gVXD2AKR

One of our customers recently shared this on G2: "Okteto allows our developers to spin up replicas of their production environments quickly, so they can test and iterate code directly in a Kubernetes environment without managing infrastructure. This means our devs move fast and save multiple hours per days by removing all manual tasks associated with managing environments." This is why we exist: to make it easier and faster for teams to ship software. Curious about how Okteto is helping teams like yours? ?? Check out these reviews: https://lnkd.in/gfY_erck

Delivering business value faster requires more than just great tools—it requires alignment between business and engineering. Thrilled to see Sleuth spotlight Ramiro Berrelleza in their latest campaign discussing how critical it is to bridge the gap between teams when navigating complex upgrades. As Ramiro points out, alignment doesn’t "just happen." It requires deliberate organizational changes and the right tools to eliminate inefficiencies. At Okteto, we save developers hours of work every week by automating away repetitive, non-differentiated tasks—freeing teams to focus on shipping business value instead of troubleshooting environments.
