Case Study: Algotec achieves faster builds and continuous integration with Incredibuild

AlgoTec cuts build times by 80% with Incredibuild

Algotec, a Carestream company developing advanced medical imaging software, faced a major challenge with its complex Vue product suite. Their C++ codebase, containing millions of lines of code, resulted in build times exceeding three hours, which severely hindered developer productivity and prevented continuous integration. To address this, Algotec turned to Incredibuild for its Visual Studio build acceleration solution.

By implementing Incredibuild, Algotec distributed its build processes across its network, drastically cutting compilation times. The largest project saw an 80% improvement, dropping from 190 minutes to 34 minutes. This dramatic reduction enabled Algotec to shift from nightly builds to a full continuous integration process, running multiple builds per day and allowing time for automated deployment and testing, which significantly improved overall productivity and software quality.
