Designing and orchestrating vibrant software platform ecosystems requires a thoughtful alignment of architecture and governance. This hands-on guide offers actionable tools to develop your own platform strategy, backed by original research, tangible metrics, rich data, and cases. You'll learn how architectural choices create organically-evolvable ecosystems, and how to apply state-of-the-art research in software engineering, strategy, and evolutionary biology to leverage ecosystem dynamics unique to platforms.
