Cloud Foundations Implementation

Context

As part of its Cloud transformation strategy, the organization launched a Foundations initiative aimed at designing and industrializing cross-functional technical components to structure Cloud environments at group level. These foundations provide a shared framework to standardize development and deployment practices while ensuring compliance with governance, security, and operational requirements. To secure the implementation of these technical components and ensure effective coordination between DevOps teams and business stakeholders, Avaliance was engaged as Proxy Product Owner, supporting the internal Product Owner.

Challenges

The client needed to industrialize the delivery of Cloud technical components while ensuring efficient agile governance and rigorous prioritization.

Key challenges included structuring the product backlog, coordinating technical teams, facilitating agile ceremonies, and establishing a framework enabling continuous delivery of standardized technical solutions for Cloud projects.
