Story
Financials work at Credit Suisse spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Switzerland. Cloud landing zones was splitting across regional habits. Infrastructure and application teams asked for a shared way to run platform operations without freezing local judgment.
IBM (Red Hat OpenShift) is what they standardized on. IBM offers hybrid cloud, AI, and automation software, including watsonx, Red Hat OpenShift, and observability products for large enterprises. Credit Suisse uses it as the system of record for cloud landing zones, with infrastructure and application 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 The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
