Story
Rockwell Automation grew cloud landing zones faster than the local tools around it. From the United States, industrials teams still had to serve customers and internal partners who expected a straight answer. Infrastructure and application teams were the ones stitching the picture together by hand.
Rolling out Red Hat Insights put platform operations on Red Hat. Red Hat, an IBM company, provides enterprise open source platforms, including RHEL, OpenShift, and Ansible, for hybrid cloud. Rockwell Automation keeps the product in the path where work already happens, so infrastructure and application teams do not context-switch into a graveyard system used only for audits.
The visible result is steadier platform operations. Cloud landing zones is easier to inspect, and adjacent groups can join infrastructure and application teams without a guided tour of someone's desktop.
