## AI overview

This article explains how internal developer platforms support resiliency by design. It argues that a well-designed platform can reduce the effects of cloud-native complexity by providing consistency, CI/CD integration, declarative infrastructure, observability, governance, and an orchestration layer across Git, Kubernetes, and cloud providers. It also describes standardized disaster recovery, failover, deployment, rollback, and security practices as platform capabilities.
