Case Study: Geospatial Product and Service Provider achieves up to $100,000 per release day ROI and dramatically faster, error-free deployments with XebiaLabs

Geospatial Product and Service Provider Achieves an ROI that’s out of This World

A publicly traded U.S. geospatial products and services provider serving defense, intelligence, public safety and commercial customers faced long, manual, error-prone deployments across hundreds of applications and a globally distributed development team. Automation was used less than 40%, builds were often unstable, specialized resources were heavily consumed, and a 13‑month in‑house Jenkins‑based attempt to solve the problem failed to meet expectations.

The company piloted XebiaLabs XL Deploy as its Delivery Automation solution, integrating it with Jenkins and Puppet to standardize and automate deployments. The result was dramatically faster, more reliable releases — eliminating deployment errors and downtime, accelerating releases, and enabling developers to focus on business value — with reported ROI of up to $100,000 per release day.
