The underlying framework that supports software development at Meta consists of a complex network of systems, tools, and processes. This framework provides the resources and environment needed for engineers to build, test, deploy, and maintain applications at scale. Examples include continuous integration/continuous deployment (CI/CD) pipelines, monitoring and alerting systems, data storage and processing solutions, and developer tools that streamline workflows.
This foundational element is critical to Meta’s ability to innovate quickly and reliably. It allows for efficient resource allocation, reduces development bottlenecks, and ensures consistent performance across a wide range of products and services. Its evolution mirrors the company’s growth and increasingly complex demands, constantly adapting to support new technologies and development methodologies. Prioritizing investments in this area enables the business to scale its operations and deliver seamless user experiences.
