Case Study: Mettle boosts deployment speed and security with Weaveworks GitOps

Mettle - Customer Case Study

Mettle, Natwest’s digital business account for startups and small businesses, needed a way to deploy new features quickly while maintaining 24x7 reliability, security, and compliance. As a fintech platform with a self-service engineering goal, the team also wanted to reduce operational overhead and mitigate the risk of compromised CI/CD pipelines.

Weaveworks helped Mettle implement GitOps with Weave Flux, integrating it with their existing Concourse CI and using pull-based deployments, GitHub deploy keys, and pull-request-driven changes for stronger security and auditability. With Weaveworks, Mettle increased production speed by 50%, boosted deployments by 75%, cut dev focus on operations by 75%, and achieved MTTR of around 20 minutes across clusters while enabling new environments in under half a day.
