Case Study: DATEV Achieves Faster Build and Release Cycles with Incredibuild

DATEV cuts CI/CD build time by 60% with Incredibuild

DATEV, a global financial software and services company, faced the challenge of lengthy build and release cycles that hindered its competitive edge. Their centralized CI team supporting over 800 developers struggled with massive nightly builds, and they sought to move from a biannual to a monthly release model. To achieve this, they implemented Incredibuild's acceleration solution to transform their build processes.

By deploying Incredibuild, DATEV centralized its compilation computing services, enabling multiple daily builds instead of a single nightly one. This resulted in a dramatic reduction in build times, achieving up to 60% faster CI/CD builds and 70% faster local builds. These improvements were instrumental in allowing DATEV to successfully transition to a monthly release cycle, greatly accelerating innovation and issue resolution.
