Story
Consumer Discretionary work at Mercado Libre spans more than one site, even when headquarters sits in Argentina. Workload migration was splitting across regional habits. Migration squads asked for a shared way to run datacenter exit planning 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. Mercado Libre uses it as the system of record for workload migration, with migration squads 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 The story is about operating change, not an unpublished percentage.
