Story
US Foods grew analytics hosting 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. Data engineers were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Nutanix Cloud Infrastructure put data platform operations on Nutanix. Nutanix offers hyperconverged infrastructure and hybrid multi-cloud software so IT teams can run VMs and Kubernetes consistently. US Foods keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so data engineers do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier data platform operations. Analytics hosting is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join data engineers without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
