Case Study: Ericsson cuts deployment time 50% with GitLab

Ericsson cuts deployment time 50% with GitLab

Ericsson, a global telecommunications company, faced the challenge of adapting its slow, multi-month software deployment cycles to meet the cloud-native speed demanded by its OSS/BSS customers. To support business growth and remain competitive, Ericsson needed to automate its processes and significantly accelerate its time to market using a solution like GitLab.

By implementing GitLab Premium as the foundation for its GitOps platform, Ericsson unified its toolchain and achieved seamless orchestration. The results were transformative: deployment time was cut by 50%, allowing for twice as many updates. This velocity, supported by a 10x increase in testing, saved 220,000 hours of manual work and directly contributed to business growth, enabling Ericsson to deliver innovation at the speed its market demands.
