## Current status
|
||||
|
||||
Backstage is currently in Alpha. This means that you can expect APIs and
|
||||
features to change until we reach our
|
||||
[Backstage Beta milestone](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/19).
|
||||
Before we have API stability, plugins will need ongoing maintenance. It is also
|
||||
recommended that teams who adopt Backstage today upgrades their installation as
|
||||
new [releases](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/releases) are available.

### Ongoing work 🚧
|
||||
|
||||
- [Plugins for managing micro services end-2-end](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/14)
|
||||
- [TechDocs v1](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/16)
|
||||
- [Initial GraphQL API](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/13)
|
||||
- Backstage Design Language System (DLS)
|
||||
- Cloud Cost Insights plugin (from Spotify)
|
||||
- **[Plugins for managing micro services end-2-end](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/14)** -
|
||||
Out of the box Backstage will ship with a set of plugins (Overview, CI, API
|
||||
and Docs) that will demonstrate how a user can manage a micro service and
|
||||
follow a change all the way out in production. Completing this work will make
|
||||
it much easier to see how a plugin can be built that integrates with the
|
||||
Backstage Service Catalog.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Backstage Design System** - By providing design guidelines for common plugin
|
||||
layouts together, rich set of reusable UI components
|
||||
([Storybook](https://backstage.io/storybook)) and Figma design resources. The
|
||||
Design System will make it easy to design and build plugins that are
|
||||
consistent across the platform -- supporting both developers and designers.
|
||||
|
||||
- **[TechDocs v1](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/16)** - Our
|
||||
docs-like-code feature TechDocs working end to end.
|
||||
|
||||
- **[Initial GraphQL API](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/13)** -
|
||||
A GraphQL API will open up the rich metadata provided by Backstage in a single
|
||||
query. Plugins can easily query this API as well as extend the model where
|
||||
needed.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Production deployments** - Provide instructions and default configurations
|
||||
(e.g. through Helm charts) for easy deployments of Backstage and its
|
||||
subsystems on Kubernetes.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Cloud Cost Insights plugin (from Spotify)** - Spotify teams are fully
|
||||
responsible for their own software, including the cost of the cloud resources
|
||||
they use. By making our internal cost insights plugin available as open source
|
||||
you will also be able to treat cost as an engineering problem, and make it
|
||||
easy for your engineers to see their spend and where there's opportunity to
|
||||
reduce waste.
|
||||
|
||||
- Further improvements to platform documentation
|
||||
|
||||
### Future work 🔮
|
||||
|
||||
- [Backstage Beta](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/19)
|
||||
- [Global search](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/issues/1499)
|
||||
- [[TechDocs V.2] Stabilization release](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/17)
|
||||
- Deploy a product demo at `demo.backstage.io`
|
||||
- Plugin marketplace
|
||||
- **[Backstage Beta](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/19)** - The
|
||||
platform APIs and features are stable and can be dependent on for production
|
||||
use. After this plugins will require little to no maintenance.
|
||||
|
||||
- **[Plugin marketplace](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/issues/2009)** -
|
||||
As the ecosystem of Backstage plugins continues to grow it is becoming
|
||||
increasingly hard to keep track of what plugins are available. To solve this
|
||||
we imagine a "Plugin marketplace" that helps with discovery and installation
|
||||
of plugins.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Deploy a product demo at `demo.backstage.io`** - Deploy a typical Backstage
|
||||
deployment available publicly so that people can click around and get a feel
|
||||
for the product without having to install anything.
|
||||
|
||||
- **[Global search](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/issues/1499)** - Extend
|
||||
the basic search available in the Backstage Service Catalog with a global
|
||||
search experience. Long term this search solution should be extensible, making
|
||||
it possible for you add custom search results.
|
||||
|
||||
- **[[TechDocs V.2] Stabilization release](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/milestone/17)** -
|
||||
Platform stability and compatibility improvements.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Additional auth providers** - Backstage should work for most (all!) auth
|
||||
solutions. Since Backstage can be used by companies regardless of what cloud
|
||||
(or on prem) you are using we are especially keen to get auth support for
|
||||
[AWS](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/issues/290),
|
||||
[Azure](https://github.com/spotify/backstage/issues/348) and others.
