Enabling digital transformation with IBM Instana Observability

Sixt, a leading international mobility services provider, was managing a highly complex cloud environment across AWS with thousands of services, containers, and deployments. To support its digital transformation and maintain reliability, Sixt needed better end-to-end visibility, faster problem detection, and quicker incident resolution, so it turned to IBM Instana Observability.

IBM implemented IBM Instana Observability to give Sixt automatic discovery, end-to-end tracing, infrastructure correlation, and customizable dashboards. The solution helped Sixt quickly identify and fix migration issues, improved platform reliability, and delivered measurable impact including a 70% decrease in problem detection and resolution time and 50% faster detection of availability anomalies.
