summary
Macquarie moves a legacy AWS pipeline into a multi‑cloud control plane running on EKS + Crossplane with Argo Workflows/Argo CD for CI/CD, Gatekeeper for policy, Grafana/Loki for observability, and a custom provider. Three Go integration services handle identity, access management, and compliance so brownfield and greenfield resources interoperate. A bot‑of‑bots Argo workflow spins ephemeral bots to validate claims on PRs, enabling new cloud services within a day or two and cutting platform toil.
