Contentstack Runs Environment Provisioning with GitLab
Contentstack, an information technology organization in the United States, uses GitLab Registry from GitLab to support environment provisioning for platform engineers.
In the United States, Contentstack relies on GitLab for environment provisioning.
“From the United States, information technology teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer.”
“GitLab is a DevSecOps platform that combines source control, CI/CD, security scanning, and planning in one application.”

| Capability | Infrastructure as code can be reviewed without waiting on a personal export |
| Capability | Named workflow replaces ad hoc routing for infrastructure as code |
| Capability | Environment provisioning stays visible to adjacent teams through GitLab Registry |
Story
Contentstack grew infrastructure as code faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, information technology teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Platform engineers were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out GitLab Registry put environment provisioning on GitLab. GitLab is a DevSecOps platform that combines source control, CI/CD, security scanning, and planning in one application. Contentstack keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so platform engineers do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier environment provisioning. Infrastructure as code is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join platform engineers without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
