Story
Industrials work at Thyssenkrupp spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Germany. Build and deploy was splitting across regional habits. Engineering teams asked for a shared way to run continuous delivery without freezing local judgment.
HashiCorp (Consul) is what they standardized on. HashiCorp (an IBM company) provides infrastructure automation software, including Terraform and Vault, for cloud provisioning and secrets. Thyssenkrupp uses it as the system of record for build and deploy, with engineering teams as the primary operators and other groups coming in through the same queue.
Leaders get a picture they can actually walk. Teams get fewer mystery statuses. The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
