Frontier Digital Ltd is a Platform Engineering company that works with organisations to enable them to operate predictably and innovate safely
We’re often asked how Platform Engineering differs from DevOps — a term now commonplace in the industry. The short answer is that – as platform engineers – we focus on building platform services and capabilities that enable developers to build and deploy applications faster, safer, more consistently and more reliably than if they’d started from scratch.
DevOps is a set of techniques, processes and practices that enables and encourages collaboration, automation, and continuous improvement across the entire software delivery lifecycle. For us, DevOps enables Platform Engineering and vice-versa.

‘Operate predictably. Innovate safely’
Our engineering philosophy is “Operate predictably. Innovate safely”, and that applies to everything we do both internally and for our clients. Not only do we enable the companies we partner with to use technology in ways that are safer, cheaper and faster, but we’ve created a culture that encourages the people who work at Frontier to ask “What if?”, and know that they can explore ideas without fear of failing.
Ultimately, our goal is to enable our clients to get value from technology. Technical delivery is only part of the solution – capabilities that enable people to operate and innovate are key to success, and we love helping bring the two together.
