The solution provides a secure, compliant, and automated foundation for digital services \u2014 from mobile apps to loyalty programs \u2014 enabling faster feature delivery, improved scalability, and reduced costs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRackspace has been proactive from day one, constantly pushing us to improve, not just waiting for us to ask,\u201d said Chad Capiz, Digital Technology Lead at Hungry Jack\u2019s. \u201cWe now have the ability to spin up environments as needed \u2014 fast, repeatable, and reliable.

Partnering with Rackspace Technology enabled the brand to modernise its architecture and bring greater control, agility, and visibility in-house.<\/p>\n<p>Rackspace\u2019s Elastic Engineering experts worked closely with Hungry Jack\u2019s to build a CI\/CD-enabled Azure landing zone that accelerates feature releases and integrates DevSecOps best practices to ensure security checks are embedded in every deployment. They automated infrastructure provisioning and patching, reducing manual errors and increasing uptime, while implementing cost-optimisation measures that leverage Azure\u2019s pay-as-you-go model. The Rackspace team also transferred critical knowledge to Hungry Jack\u2019s internal and offshore teams, strengthening operational maturity and enabling self-sufficiency.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Results<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The modernisation has paved the way for Hungry Jack\u2019s to expand its digital services and deliver more engaging customer experiences. Automated deployments have significantly reduced release times, leading to faster time-to-market. The new Azure foundation has improved platform stability and uptime across customer applications while enhancing the company\u2019s overall security posture through continuous compliance and automated patching. By optimising resource use, Hungry Jack\u2019s has lowered infrastructure costs and created a future-ready platform capable of supporting new digital initiatives and innovations.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHungry Jack\u2019s has been a fantastic long-term partner and a perfect example of what real collaboration can achieve,\u201d said Adhil Badat, Managing Director, APJ, Rackspace Technology. \u201cWe\u2019ve worked hand-in-hand to build a modern Azure setup that gives them the agility, speed, and security they need to engage customers at scale.
