Case Study: Verizon speeds software delivery and cloud migration with Cloud Foundry

Verizon scales to 1,000 apps and 4,000 containers with Cloud Foundry

Verizon, a Fortune 15 telecommunications company, faced the challenge of needing to deliver software to market faster to remain competitive. Their traditional infrastructure was a roadblock to innovation, making it difficult for developers to prototype and test new ideas efficiently. To address this, Verizon turned to the vendor Cloud Foundry to adopt a cloud-native platform.

The solution implemented by Cloud Foundry provided developers with a self-service platform that drastically increased deployment speed and reduced overhead. This allowed Verizon's teams to prototype, innovate, and fail faster with much lower risk. As a result, Verizon grew from 5 to 1,000 applications and 4,000 containers running on Cloud Foundry, significantly accelerating its time to market. The vendor Cloud Foundry also provided enhanced security through short-lived containers and became a vehicle for Verizon's migration to public cloud.
