Goal:

Empower the Wikimedia Foundation to accomplish its goals of Knowledge Equity and Knowledge as a Service by evolving and investing in our technology stack to improve its flexibility, maintainability, and sustainability.

The Platform Evolution Program, and this Wiki, are split into 2 components:

  1. The 3-5 year plan which represents the total work needed for the program to accomplish the goal
  2. The FY18-19 plan which represents the first year's work moving the program towards the goal

Three to Five Year CDP Plan

projects due to improved architecture
and modularization of the technology
stack
Outcome 2: Users across all languages,
accessibility and usability spectrums
can access more of the functionality
of Wikimedia projects across more
interfaces, devices and form factors

understanding of our technology
stack and the plan to better scale,
maintain and test it
Outcome 2: Engineers are able to
access more functionality of the
stack using well encapsulated
components and well defined APIs
Outcome 3: Engineers better understand
