Story
Inside Packaging Corporation of America, datacenter exit planning used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in materials groups working out of the United States. Migration squads needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Packaging Corporation of America uses Vertex AI from Google Cloud as the working layer for workload migration. Google Cloud provides infrastructure, analytics, and AI services, including BigQuery and Vertex AI, for data-heavy and machine learning workloads. The practical change is simple: datacenter exit planning has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Packaging Corporation of America gets from Google Cloud is a durable place to run datacenter exit planning and a way for migration squads to see the same workload migration at the same time.
