Unpacking the 2025 Developer Experience Trend Report: Insights, Gaps, and Putting it into Action

DZone’s 2025 Developer Experience Trend Report highlights key themes shaping engineering teams today—platform engineering, developer advocacy, and the evolving ways we measure productivity. But what’s missing from the conversation?

Join Cortex co-founders Anish and Ganesh as they break down the findings, offer their perspective, and challenge some of the assumptions in the report. Our take? Developer experience starts with getting ownership right. Without clear service ownership, teams struggle with accountability, cognitive overload, and inconsistent engineering standards—ultimately holding back developer productivity.

In this webinar, we’ll cover:

• What the report gets right—and where we see gaps in the industry’s understanding of developer experience
• Why ownership is the foundation of engineering excellence and how it connects to DevEx trends like platform engineering and DevSecOps
• Practical strategies for improving developer experience by focusing on ownership, accountability, and streamlined processes
• If you’re interested in a deeper discussion beyond the headlines of the DevEx Trends Report, this session will provide fresh insights and actionable takeaways.
