User:PPchelko (WMF)/Platform Engineering Team

From mediawiki.org

This team has the primary responsibility for the Platform that supports the projects of the Wikimedia Movement. The platform is comprised of MediaWiki, Data Platform, API Platform, Platform Operations, WMF Dumps and the Wikimedia service infrastructure which provides our services, APIs and tools. Additionally, the team supports MediaWiki as a FLOSS product to be used by 3rd parties to host and share knowledge in a variety of contexts.
