At Pinterest, our mission is to bring everyone the inspiration to create a life they love. This ambitious goal is powered by a complex technological ecosystem managed by thousands of engineers who develop and maintain services to support over 550 million monthly active users¹.
在 Pinterest，我们的使命是为每个人带来灵感，帮助他们创造自己热爱的生活。这一宏伟目标由数千名工程师管理的复杂技术生态系统驱动，他们开发并维护服务，以支持超过 5.5 亿月活用户¹。
As Pinterest evolved to a platform serving hundreds of millions of users, we faced a critical question: How do we maintain engineering velocity while managing increasing technological complexity? The answer led us to reimagine our developer experience through an Internal Developer Platform — PinConsole, our unified developer portal built on Backstage.
随着 Pinterest 发展为服务数亿用户的平台，我们面临一个关键问题：如何在管理日益增加的技术复杂性的同时保持工程速度？答案促使我们重新构想开发者体验，通过内部开发者平台——PinConsole，我们的统一开发者门户，基于 Backstage 构建。
The Strategic Case for Internal Developer Platforms
内部开发者平台的战略价值
Internal Developer Platforms represent a fundamental shift in how engineering organizations scale beyond organic tool growth. At Pinterest’s scale, we reached a critical inflection point where our historically successful approach of decentralized tool adoption began creating organizational bottlenecks rather than eliminating friction.
内部开发者平台代表了工程组织在超越有机工具增长时的根本转变。在 Pinterest 的规模下，我们达到了一个关键拐点：过去成功的去中心化工具采用方式开始造成组织瓶颈，而非消除摩擦。
When Pinterest was a younger company, each team solved immediate problems by adopting or building tools that worked for their specific context. This organic approach ...
