Meridian Freight's platform team replaced a patchwork of manual runbooks with Nexora's golden path templates, taking new environment provisioning from a multi-week ticket queue to a self-service workflow.
Meridian's route-optimization platform runs across 14 regional environments, each provisioned by hand by a three-person infrastructure team. Every new region took an average of three weeks of ticket back-and-forth between application engineers and infrastructure, and no two environments ended up configured quite the same way.
Meridian's platform team modeled their standard environment as a Nexora golden path template, encoding networking, IAM boundaries, and observability defaults once. Application teams now request a new environment through Nexora's self-service catalog; provisioning runs against the same template every time, with policy guardrails blocking any configuration that falls outside platform standards.
New regional environments now provision in under 40 minutes, with zero manual infrastructure tickets. Drift detection caught 12 unauthorized changes in the first quarter alone — each remediated automatically before it reached production traffic.
“We stopped being a ticket queue and started being a platform. Application teams self-serve the exact environment shape we've already approved, every time.”
