Gradle Technologies

Gradle Technologies is the award-winning company behind Gradle Build Tool—one of the most used build systems in the world—and Develocity®, the leading developer toolchain observability platform.
Software shipped at human speed. AI just ended that. Gradle Technologies is now Develocity: same team and access, sharper focus on AI-driven delivery governance and efficiency. What changed and what stays the same: https://develocity.ai/blog/gradle-technologies-is-now-develocity/ #Develocity #AI
Is Gradle slow on your ephemeral CI? It's mostly the startup phase, and every disposable runner starts cold. We benchmarked the fixes (Gradle 9.5.1, Docker, averaged runs). Part 1: https://blog.gradle.org/gradle-on-ephemeral-ci-1
Every public repo's CI config is world-readable. So I read how Spring Boot, OkHttp, Mockito, JUnit 5 & detekt actually run their builds. They disagree about almost everything, but quietly converged on the same GitHub Action. blog.gradle.org/running-gradle-github-actions
AI-generated code means AI-generated supply chain risk. 🛡️ A Build Artifact CDN like Develocity doesn't just speed things up—it gives you provenance on everything that shipped. See how >> https://gradl.es/4uUnsBx #Develocity #DevSecOps #SupplyChainSecurity
Cold builds don't have to mean slow builds. ☃️ Develocity Universal Cache and Develocity Edge provide ephemeral CI warm cache state across your whole fleet...without compromising isolation. Learn more >> https://gradl.es/4lYwyce #Develocity #UniversalCache
"50% of that build time was re-downloading." "How do you know?" "...I didn't, until now." Develocity's new dependency download visibility tells you exactly what's hitting the network vs. what's cached. Learn more >> https://gradl.es/4sKE7pH #Develocity #CI
Apollo GraphQL cut a specific task from 4+ minutes to 0 using Develocity Artifact Cache. 📉 Not faster — zero. That's what eliminating redundant work actually looks like. Read the breakdown: https://gradle.com/blog/ci-without-the-wait-develocity-universal-cache/ #CI #Develocity #GenAI
Your CI spent 60% of this morning re-downloading dependencies it already had yesterday. 📦 That's not a build problem, it's a billing problem. Stop paying the tax: https://gradle.com/blog/ci-without-the-wait-develocity-universal-cache/ #DevOps #Develocity #UniversalCache #CI
Adding more CI runners to handle AI-driven commit volume is just spending more money to stay in the same place. DORA metrics exist for a reason. 🩹 Learn more >> https://gradle.com/blog/pipeline-acceleration-strategic-imperative-genai-era/ #PlatformEngineering #CICD #DeveloperProductivity #DORA
Ephemeral CI is great for security. Terrible for build speed. Every clean container = 100% download tax, every single commit. You shouldn't have to choose. ❄️ See how >> https://gradle.com/blog/ci-without-the-wait-develocity-universal-cache/ #PlatformEngineering #CI #Develocity #ArtifactCache
Your engineers are shipping twice as much code. Your CI queue is twice as long. AI didn't fix your bottleneck — it moved it. 📉 Here's the fix 👉 https://gradle.com/blog/pipeline-acceleration-strategic-imperative-genai-era/ #GenAI #CICD #Develocity
40+ minutes re-downloading dependencies on every build?? Develocity Artifact Cache brought that to 2 minutes. 20x speedup — no architectural changes. ⚡ See the numbers: https://gradle.com/blog/universal-cache-keeps-builds-fast-and-costs-in-control/ #CI #Develocity #ArtifactCache
AI is writing code faster than your CI can validate it. That <pending> status is where your productivity gains go to die. 🚨 Fix it here >> https://gradle.com/blog/ci-without-the-wait-develocity-universal-cache/ #GenAI #CI #Develocity
