A Upbound Case Study
Grupo Boticário reduces deployments from hours to minutes with Upbound
Grupo Boticário, the second largest cosmetics company in Brazil, faced significant challenges with its sprawling infrastructure. Their small infrastructure team was overwhelmed servicing a large number of developers, causing a huge backlog that left developers blocked for days or weeks when provisioning simple resources like databases. To efficiently scale their DevOps teams and enable growth, they turned to Upbound and its product, Crossplane.
The solution implemented by Upbound provided a centralized, standardized, self-service platform using Crossplane. This allowed developers to easily provision approved infrastructure within their existing ArgoCD pipelines using GitHub Actions. The results were dramatic: Grupo Boticário reduced deployment times from over seven days to just minutes, achieved a 98% reduction in DevOps engineering costs, and saved over 20,000 work hours, significantly speeding up their time to market.
