Value results
| Category | Value result |

| Capability | Infrastructure and application teams work from the same IBM Instana record for cloud landing zones |
| Capability | Cloud landing zones can be reviewed without waiting on a personal export |
| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for cloud landing zones |
Story
Autodesk did not need another dashboard that nobody opened. It needed platform operations to move. In the United States, infrastructure and application teams already knew where cloud landing zones went wrong: too many copies, too little ownership, and a close process that waited on the loudest inbox.
IBM Instana from IBM is now in that path. IBM offers hybrid cloud, AI, and automation software, including watsonx, Red Hat OpenShift, and observability products for large enterprises. The company treats it as production tooling for platform operations, which is why infrastructure and application teams live in it rather than exporting from it once a quarter.
Autodesk can show how cloud landing zones is handled today. That is the value: a repeatable way to run platform operations on software the rest of the industry already recognizes.
