Introducing VMware Tanzu Developer Portal: Empowering Developers with Enterprise-Grade Backstage

Tanzu Developer Portal is an internal developer portal, built on Backstage, that simplifies how enterprise software organizations coordinate, collaborate, and execute across multiple teams and business units. Tanzu Developer Portal has been the developer interface for VMware Tanzu Application Platform since its first release. It is even more powerful now, with the new additions of a portal configurator tool (currently in beta) and support for plugin integration (also in beta).

With Tanzu Developer Portal, there is now a common destination for developers to discover assets such as project templates, common dataset APIs, or standard supply chains, while also being able to monitor in-progress tasks like continuous integration and deployment (CI/CD), automated testing, and production operations.

Tanzu Developer Portal addresses these challenges by providing a single destination for a wide variety of the information and building blocks that developers rely on every day. Learn more about Tanzu Developer Portal from our recent conversation with RedMonk:
