Case Study: Portaltech Reply achieves hours-to-months SAP Hybris development time savings with Rogue Wave Software's JRebel

Improving SAP Hybris development with JRebel

Portaltech Reply, a leading SAP Hybris implementation partner, faced slow development cycles where builds took about five minutes and restarts three to four minutes, causing substantial downtime across teams of four to 60 developers. To reduce this friction, Portaltech Reply trialed JRebel from Rogue Wave Software.

Following the trial, Portaltech Reply made JRebel from Rogue Wave Software a standard developer tool; JRebel lets developers see code changes in real time and preserve application state, eliminating many rebuild/redeploy cycles. The result was higher productivity—some developers now work with no restarts or only one full build per day—saving from hours to months per project; sample per-developer monthly savings ranged from 130–233 minutes (Project Ht 130, Em 199, Ea 233), and Project Ea yielded 105 hours saved across the project in a single month.
