Story
Industrials work at CSX spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in the United States. Analytics hosting was splitting across regional habits. Data engineers asked for a shared way to run data platform operations without freezing local judgment.
VMware (vSphere) is what they standardized on. VMware, part of Broadcom, provides virtualization, private cloud, and container software used to run enterprise data centers. CSX uses it as the system of record for analytics hosting, with data engineers 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 The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
