| Capability | Infrastructure and application teams work from the same VMware Cloud Foundation record for cloud landing zones |
Story
Cobalt grew cloud landing zones faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, information technology teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Infrastructure and application teams were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out VMware Cloud Foundation put platform operations on VMware. VMware, part of Broadcom, provides virtualization, private cloud, and container software used to run enterprise data centers. Cobalt keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so infrastructure and application teams do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier platform operations. Cloud landing zones is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join infrastructure and application teams without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
