Case Study: a major European bank slashes build times with Incredibuild

Major European Bank slashes build times from 25 hours to 40 minutes with Incredibuild

A major European bank faced significant challenges with its development processes, where its quantitative analysis team of 700 developers struggled with frequent disruptions and lengthy build times that hampered agility. Due to regulatory constraints limiting cloud use, the bank sought support from Incredibuild to accelerate its C++ compilation and Ninja build systems within its CI/CD pipeline.

Incredibuild implemented a distributed solution with thousands of helper cores and initiators deployed across EMEA and North America to support the bank's extensive operations. This integration slashed build times from 25 hours to just 40 minutes, a 97.33% reduction that dramatically boosted developer productivity and provided the agility needed to respond to internal changes. The bank credited Incredibuild for substantially accelerating its infrastructure and expressed great satisfaction with the platform and service.
