Story
Dairy Farmers of America grew cloud landing zones faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, consumer staples 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 Google Cloud put platform operations on Google Cloud. Google Cloud provides infrastructure, analytics, and AI services, including BigQuery and Vertex AI, for data-heavy and machine learning workloads. Dairy Farmers of America 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.
