Incredibuild has acquired Garden to bolster its acceleration capabilities for the entire DevOps lifecycle for game devs and other software makers.
Incredibuild said the integration of Garden’s CI/CD Pipeline (continuous integration/continuous development) acceleration capabilities positions it as the leader in end-to-end acceleration solutions for software development. (In this case, Garden is the software tool maker, not the game studio, which is a different company).
Incredibuild provides acceleration technology for software development, helping game developers and others get their products out the door faster.
Garden is a pioneer in DevOps pipeline acceleration solutions. The integration of Garden’s technology into Incredibuild’s platform will provide customers with seamless, swift, automated software delivery, from development to production.
Garden’s technology accelerates CI workflows managed by DevOps teams — making Dev and CI pipelines faster, easier, and smarter. With features like stack graph, caching, production-like environments and easy onboarding, Garden empowers DevOps teams to quickly develop cloud-native applications and deliver software more efficiently.
Garden’s advanced CI acceleration capabilities complement Incredibuild‘s comprehensive C++ and shader compilation acceleration, together providing an end-to-end software acceleration platform for myriad industries including gaming, automotive, FinServ, healthcare, manufacturing and beyond.
Combining approaches
Both Garden and Incredibuild provide tools to help companies build and release software faster. Garden specializes in cloud-native applications, especially for companies using Kubernetes; while Incredibuild is widely used in areas like gaming and financial modeling to speed up complex processes like compiling code.
By combining these two technologies, companies across industries can speed up their entire development cycle — from writing code to launching the final product – allowing teams to work more quickly and bring products to market faster. In our fast-moving, software-focused world, we are fulfilling the most pressing need for an extremely wide range of companies.
The intended customer base includes any company developing software with containers and Kubernetes looking to accelerate its development process – in short, an extremely wide range of companies from a wide range of industries.
“The acquisition of Garden advances our goal of taking the pain out of long development cycles – particularly at build-time,” said Tami Mazel Shachar, CEO of Incredibuild, in a statement. “Customers have long complained that CI pipelines are slow, complicated, and hard to manage, so we are excited to now accelerate the entire CI process. Garden’s expertise streamlining CI pipelines and environments aligns perfectly with our mission: Accelerating every aspect of software development.”
Origins
Founded in 2018, Garden is known for its powerful open-source tools that empower developers to speed up CI pipelines, increasing deployment frequency and shortening development cycles.
By joining with Incredibuild, Garden will bring its offering to a broader audience and enhance Incredibuild’s ability to accelerate the entire software development lifecycle.
“What excites me most is our shared passion for making devs faster, and how together, we provide a complete suite of tools to help developers worldwide,” said Jon Edvald, CEO of Garden, in a statement. “Incredibuild’s acceleration technology, combined with our unique approach to CI and DevOps, means we’re embarking on a relentless mission to accelerate pipelines in every way, including changing developers’ interactions with automation across the development cycle. We have two extremely powerful products, and united, the whole is even greater than the sum of its parts.”
This acquisition is part of Incredibuild’s initiative to expand its singular product portfolio, providing developers with the most comprehensive and powerful set of tools for accelerating development processes.
Incredibuild’s platform of distributed and cached build acceleration, build observability tools, and build orchestration software means developer teams spend less time waiting for builds and platform engineers and DevOps orgs help organizations cut costs and compute times on-prem and in the cloud – without changing code, tools, or processes.
Incredibuild has been innovating and helping companies speed up the development process and save money for over 20 years – including dozens of Fortune 500 companies including some of the biggest names in technology, games, and banking.
