Case Study: Hinge reduces build times by 50% with Develocity from Gradle

Hinge reduces build times by 50% with Gradle

Hinge, a social media and mobile app with over 20 million users, faced significant developer productivity challenges due to slow builds and tests. A lack of observability into performance regressions and failure trends caused troubleshooting delays and hindered their DevOps initiatives. To address these issues, Hinge turned to Gradle and implemented its Develocity platform.

By using Gradle's Develocity, Hinge achieved a 50% reduction in build times through features like the Build Cache. The Build Scan and Failure Analytics tools provided the observability needed for rapid resolution of failures. This solution delivered immediate ROI and enabled Hinge to accelerate its productivity initiatives, with the platform becoming a mission-critical component of their development strategy.
