How Delta Air Lines Scaled AI-Native Development to 1,200 Engineers with Cloud Development Environments
Red Hat, Tuesday, October 20th, 2026
Red Hat details how Delta Air Lines used OpenShift Dev Spaces cloud development environments to support 1,200 developers.
Red Hat says Delta Air Lines' Developer Experience team found its developer Net Promoter Score was very low when it began measuring it.
Two years after deploying cloud development environments to more than 1,200 developers, the team saw NPS improvement, performance gains for developers moving off virtual desktop infrastructure and onboarding reduced from days or weeks.
Delta built the platform on Red Hat OpenShift Dev Spaces to address onboarding, dependency conflicts and governance as it scaled AI-native development.
