Chitale Dairy modernizes its portfolio of business-critical apps with VMware Tanzu

Chitale Dairy, a leading producer of Dairy products based in Pune India, extended its partnership with VMware, Inc. to modernize its business-critical application with Tanzu. Chitale Diary was looking to digitize every aspect of its business, from animal feed procurement to delivering dairy products to customers. Chitale Diary modernized existing applications and developed a hybrid cloud environment which helped the dairy accelerate the delivery of new capabilities and boost efficiency while providing the flexibility to capitalize on multi-cloud environments in the future. The organization has been working with VMware since 2005 when they launched the revolutionary "Cows to Cloudprogram that helps farmers improve their stock and increase milk production.

 

With this extended partnership, Chitale Dairy has now launched "Grass to Glass" to meet changing customer requirements and adapt to new competitive conditions. VMware’s premier partner, Sunfire Technologies, worked with Chitale’s development team to containerize key applications that run on Kubernetes clusters drawn from the VMware Tanzu portfolio. Sunfire helped the dairy containerize existing apps, implement an agile DevOps methodology and build continuous integration/continuous delivery (CI/CD) pipelines.

 

Key aspects of ‘Grass to Glass’ program include the following:

 

·  Digitized every aspect of the business from feeding animals (grass) to delivering dairy products to consumers (in glass) - transitioning all software to modern, containerized apps.

·  Infused digital technology at every step of production.

·  Implemented VMware Tanzu Service Mesh, VMware Cloud Foundation, and VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer to create cloud-native apps.

·  Modernized existing applications and developed a hybrid cloud environment.

 

VMware Tanzu is a modular, cloud-native application platform that helps to accelerate development, delivery, and operations across multiple clouds. By adopting Tanzu, Chitale Dairy has streamlined its application development and deployment processes, enabling faster time-to-market for new products and services. The robust capabilities of Tanzu have allowed Chitale Dairy to enhance its overall agility, scalability, and security in a rapidly evolving digital landscape. By integrating virtualization, cloud computing, and data analytics, VMware worked towards helping create a digital foundation that will drive innovation and help Chitale Dairy achieve its business goals.
