An MVP for an IDP should be designed to solve a specific problem for a well-defined group of users.
The MVP could include basic functionality like a 'Backend Onboarding Service' where developers fill out a catalog form to provision CI/CD pipelines, repositories, and infrastructure components.
To demonstrate the value of IDP, it is important to show how technical improvements lead to broader business outcomes.
By treating IDP as a product, starting small, and focusing on measurable outcomes, you can validate its impact and create a foundation for scaling adoption across the organization.
