In the evolving landscape of cloud-native ecosystems, aligning teams and standardizing practices is crucial for operational excellence. At Toyota Connected, we faced significant challenges due to inconsistent practices and fragmented collaboration across departments. To address this, we adopted a suite of CNCF tools including ArgoCD, Backstage, Harbor, External Secrets Operator, and OpenCost. This session will delve into our journey of implementing these tools to unify our approach, streamline workflows, and enhance cross-team collaboration. Attendees will gain insights into the practical application of these tools, our successes and failures, and the substantial reduction in time to market achieved. By focusing on the integration of technical solutions and effective team practices, we aim to foster a cohesive and efficient cloud-native environment. This presentation provides actionable strategies for leveraging CNCF tools to drive innovation and excellence in your organization.
