Story
Inside Palantir Technologies, platform operations used to depend on whoever still had the latest file. That pattern is common in information technology groups working out of the United States. Infrastructure and application teams needed a system that would still make sense after the original project team moved on.
Palantir Technologies uses IBM Instana from IBM as the working layer for cloud landing zones. IBM offers hybrid cloud, AI, and automation software, including watsonx, Red Hat OpenShift, and observability products for large enterprises. The practical change is simple: platform operations has a home, and reviews happen there instead of in a forwarded thread.
Nothing in this writeup invents a savings number. What Palantir Technologies gets from IBM is a durable place to run platform operations and a way for infrastructure and application teams to see the same cloud landing zones at the same time.
