Success Story

How RheinEnergie got ready for a cloud-native future

This success story describes how RheinEnergie, a leading German utility, is using meshcloud to shape its cloud transformation.

Hundreds of developers in 40 teams at RheinEnergie use AWS, Azure and Google Cloud – powered by two people in the infrastructure team who were able to build a scalable platform with meshcloud.

Secure cloud onboarding

A meshcloud customer now covers 85% of the security controls in cloud onboarding with meshStack. IT security is an important topic – conflicts during cloud migration are often programmed. This puts the achievement of goals at risk and creates frustration. meshStack as the technical platform for cloud transformation and the support of meshcloud experts have resolved these conflicts: Above all, the establishment of landing zones available to the development teams has meant that the cloud migration is back on track.

Transparent cloud billing

A meshcloud customer was faced with the challenge of adapting its own IT cost management to the company’s cloud strategy. Traditional methods of budgeting in the relatively static data center structure were no match for the dynamic pay-per-use model of the cloud.

Being able to allocate and account for 100% of the costs of the private cloud was the goal. The pay-per-use model of hyperscalers works the same way with meshStack in the private cloud. The customer was able to implement showback and chargeback internally, thus increasing transparency, creating cost awareness and reducing costs.

From Lift & Shift to Cloud-Native

One of Germany’s largest banks started with its traditional IT organization and ambitious goals when it came to cloud transformation. Many projects should disappear from data centers in a relatively short time and be run on cloud platforms.

Achieving this was not possible with refactoring all applications. However, it was important to the customer to keep the path to cloud-native architectures technologically open. Security in the cloud should be standardized and the possibilities of automation in the cloud should be fully exploited.

With meshStack, the transformation to an agile product organization has been successful: With an end-to-end automated self-service process, application teams get to the development environments they need in the cloud in minutes. The customer covers both lift & shift and cloud-native use cases with meshStack.

Integration second cloud platform

A major energy provider in Germany faced the challenge of introducing Azure as an additional cloud platform alongside AWS. The integration of AWS had previously taken more time than expected and posed many challenges. The company’s development teams had also not embraced the previous cloud offering as originally anticipated.

So the goal was to integrate Azure into the enterprise, enable cloud-native use cases for Azure and AWS, and increase usage of the cloud by application teams.

With a focus on modular, cloud-native landing zones, the cloud is now attractive to developers and can be used easily and securely.

The integration of AWS and Azure into the meshStack cloud foundation platform have dramatically reduced the time to deploy Azure in the enterprise. meshStack covers governance for both platforms – it does not need to be rebuilt separately. This reduces complexity and operational effort for our customer.

Automation and integration

The enterprise architects of a major German energy company faced the challenge of implementing the company’s cloud strategy with few resources in the area of platform engineers. Providing cloud accounts via telephone or email processes took a very long time and tied up capacity. The manual configuration of accounts has resulted in a heterogeneous security level.

The goal was self-service for cloud-native use cases, deployment of multiple cloud platforms, and as much freedom as possible for development teams to foster innovation.

With meshStack, a multi-cloud setup was achieved within a few months. Workshops and support from meshcloud’s experts helped build the necessary expertise.

All routine processes could be completely automated with meshStack. This has freed up important capacities at Platform Engineers again.

With meshStack, the company was able to win an external award for its cloud organization and make the cloud attractive internally.
