[Community] Defining a Framework to define and implement Platform as a Product

[varodrig]

Contribution Description

Platform as a Product encourages teams to collaborate, release, and adapt swiftly to market demands by adopting a user-centric approach. Embracing this concept can lead to several positive outcomes, such as increased adoption, removal of obstacles, and enhanced flexibility and scalability. By incorporating agile methodologies and leveraging software development principles, platform development can stay aligned with evolving market needs.

Building a framework will help the community better understand the Platform as a Product, how to get started, potential implementation, best practices, and how to measure it.
