Case Study: Asahi Group achieves faster modernization and higher productivity with Google Cloud Platform

Asahi Group Holdings Modernizing legacy systems for better business innovation with Google Cloud

Asahi Group, a Tokyo-based food and beverage company, wanted to modernize legacy systems that were slowing daily operations and turning IT into a cost center. Working with Google Cloud Platform, including services such as BigQuery, Google Kubernetes Engine, Apigee API Management, and Google Cloud VMware Engine, the company looked for a way to support its growth strategy and build a more modern digital environment.

Google Cloud Platform helped Asahi Group migrate systems quickly, reduce bottlenecks in hub systems, and free IT teams from routine maintenance so they could focus on higher-value business work. The company also used BigQuery to process large volumes of data faster and Google Cloud VMware Engine to move VMware workloads to the cloud with minimal changes, improving performance and enabling a smoother, low-impact transition for users.
