Danone, a consumer staples organization in France, uses Nomad from HashiCorp to support environment provisioning for platform engineers.
Value results
| Category | Value result |
|---|---|
| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for infrastructure as code |
| Capability | Environment provisioning stays visible to adjacent teams through Nomad |
| Capability | Platform engineers work from the same Nomad record for infrastructure as code |
Story
Inside Danone, environment provisioning used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in consumer staples groups working out of France. Platform engineers needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Danone uses Nomad from HashiCorp as the working layer for infrastructure as code. HashiCorp (an IBM company) provides infrastructure automation software, including Terraform and Vault, for cloud provisioning and secrets. The practical change is simple: environment provisioning has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Danone gets from HashiCorp is a durable place to run environment provisioning and a way for platform engineers to see the same infrastructure as code at the same time.
