With such a massive services scale, the company has decided to move it&#8217;s on-premise data analytics system and ERP technology to Google Cloud. The vision is to enable efficient service delivery across wide industrial areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As per Mahindra&#8217;s business the Group operates in the following mainstream industries: steel, automobile, motorsports, agriculture, and IT industry. The business giant operates in over 100 countries and manages over 150 companies under its brand name.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With such a huge business footprint, the robust management of services is hard pressed. Mahindra Group is already using <a href=\"https:\/\/dicecamp.com\/insights\/sql-and-databases-the-present-and-future\/\">data analytics technologies<\/a> to support it\u2019s service delivery. The company owns a data warehouse as well as a data lake to drive business strategies. The company also owns an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system- a software technology that integrates all the main business processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><strong><em>So, with a robust digital infrastructure at hand why, the need for a cloud analytics technology and DevOps?<\/em><\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>To achieve<\/em> &#8216;<em>Agility&#8217;<\/em>. The demand for agile service delivery has increased today, and competitive survival in the business landscape forces huge companies to move to <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cloud platforms such as Google Cloud<\/a>. These technology brands offer powerful tools that enable fast delivery of software services.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from agility, <em>scalability<\/em>, and <em>low cost<\/em> <em>of ownership<\/em> are other benefits that come with cloud service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anecdotal evidence shows that there are two major areas where the cloud platforms offer value to companies: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/news\/252514233\/Indias-Mahindra-Group-makes-cloud-move\"><em>data analytics<\/em>, and <em>application development<\/em><\/a>. Mahindra Group also appears to seek support in such areas to enable <a href=\"https:\/\/www.computerweekly.com\/news\/252514233\/Indias-Mahindra-Group-makes-cloud-move\">data-driven decision making<\/a> and enabling DevOps through cloud-native application development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\"><blockquote><p>\u201cBy utilizing Google Cloud\u2019s best-in-class infrastructure and data capabilities, we can innovate faster for competitive differentiation, advance our enterprise sustainability goals and strengthen our talent pool,\u201d <\/p><cite><em>CHIEF TECHNOLOGY OFFICER, MOHIT KAPOOR<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>To enable powerful <em>data analytics<\/em>, the company decided to fully migrate its <a href=\"https:\/\/dicecamp.com\/insights\/google-cloud-introduces-innovative-data-warehouse-security\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">data warehouse<\/a> and data lake to cloud platform. Google cloud offers <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/looker\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">data engineers and scientists<\/a> to perform analytics in a quick way with it&#8217;s \u201c<em>in-database architecture and powerful semantic layer that provide real-time governed metrics<\/em>\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s another interesting feature of Google Cloud, the \u2018Vertex AI\u2019 which is a <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/vertex-ai\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">unified machine learning platform<\/a> that allows building scalable AI models. The platform also offers a low <em>cost of ownership TCO<\/em> (allegedly 26-34% in three years as claimed by Google).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With regard to the application development,<strong> <\/strong>Mahindra group seeks to scale up its DevOps capability by shifting to Google cloud. The cloud platform offers <a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/devops\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">cloud-native application development tools<\/a> to enable modern application development technology- DevOps. The DevOps (Developers + Operations) team uses cloud technology to develop software that aims to achieve agility in application and service delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How DevOps Works?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/devops\/what-is-devops\/\">DevOps team builds software<\/a> across the whole value chain of a business such as logistics, inventory, and customer service. They use technology to automate the traditionally slow processes by developing applications.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DevOps creates a micro application (called a microsservice) for each operational process and these applications can then interact with each other through APIs or messaging. Through this approach, DevOps team fulfills two of its purposes: increasing operational efficiency and delivering improved QoS to customers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.redhat.com\/en\/topics\/cloud-native-apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><em>Cloud native app development<\/em><\/a> is an agile approach towards application development (also includes updates) to build responsive, fault tolerant and scalable apps on cloud. A <em>microservice<\/em> breaks apps into smaller components and speeds&nbsp; up the application delivery as part of the cloud native app development.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Mahindra Group estimates a 3-year time frame to fully migrate to Google Cloud. Meanwhile, the company seeks to explore further options within Google Cloud which could be leveraged to escalate the value the platform is offering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The goal is to support company&#8217;s data analytics, and application development goals.
