Case Study: Fanatics achieves faster DevOps provisioning and better infrastructure visibility with Embotics Corporation vCommander

Fanatics Uses vCommander to Automate DevOps Provisioning

Fanatics, the global leader in licensed sports merchandise, needed a faster way to provision virtual machines and support its compact DevOps team across multiple data centers and fulfillment centers. Before working with Embotics Corporation and its vCommander product, provisioning could take three days and required coordination across several teams for storage, firewall, and network setup.

Embotics Corporation implemented vCommander to automate and orchestrate VM creation and application deployment using workflows, templates, and self-service provisioning. The result was a drop in provisioning time to under 10 minutes, plus better integration with tools like Jenkins and Chef, improved visibility into infrastructure and spend, and more time for Fanatics’ team to focus on strategic work.
