30. “We really try to bring the open
source culture in, and so far, we
really succeeded. With CI/CD, we
have one and a half million builds
every month. The whole culture
has completely changed.”
Fabio Huser
Software Architect at Siemens Smart Infrastructure
Problem → Siemens’ development teams
needed a platform for code
collaboration and enhanced DevOps
workflow.
Solution → GitLab Free
Result → GitLab enables over 6.5m +
builds per month (over 210K per day).
There are zero support cases and over
4 full production deploys per month.
With over 40,000 GitLab users, Siemens
teams contribute heavily to GitLab with
over 150 merged MRs in GitLab.
