There was no shared language for "what's next" vs "what's proven" vs "what we're retiring."</p> <p>So together with our Pavel Struchalin, IT architects Bakhytzhan Karabalin and Nikolay Kochubashev discussing with all technical teams across the company, we built one.<br> The BCC HUB Tech Radar maps our real engineering stack — languages, frameworks, platforms, tools - across the classic Adopt / Trial / Assess / Hold rings. Go, Kotlin, Spring Boot, Kubernetes, Kafka, gRPC, Testcontainers, FastAPI - real choices our teams are making today, not an aspirational slide deck.</p> <p>Why does a radar matter for developer ecosystems in emerging markets? Because credibility isn't built by claiming you're "AI-by-default" or "cloud-native" - it's built by publishing your actual technology decisions and standing behind them. <br> That's how you attract senior engineers, how you get taken seriously by regional tech communities, and how you give your own people something to point to and say "this is what we build with."</p> <p>Proud that this came out of Almaty.</p> <p>Check it out:<a href="https://bcchub.kz/en/radar" rel="noopener noreferrer">https://bcchub.kz/en/radar</a></p> <h1> DevRel #TechRadar #EngineeringCulture #CentralAsia #Fintech </h1> techradar bcchub tengridev devsmapcom
