City of Zurich Enables Current IT Staff to Manage Infrastructure

The City of Zurich has always relied on standardization, consolidation and automation. OIZ wanted to take the private cloud to the next level with an enterprise-defined data center (EDDC), where workloads can run in the private cloud and move seamlessly to the public cloud. To support this project, OIZ drew up a list of 300 requirements, including continuous automation, ongoing release, ongoing testing and pre-configuration. VMware Cloud Foundation met these needs.
