ThoughtSpot, a company focused on improving developer productivity, has transitioned from an appliance-based product to a SaaS model, allowing faster development cycles and greater innovation. Leveraging AI tools like GitHub Copilot and custom solutions, they've streamlined workflows, boosted efficiency, and tackled the challenges of breaking down monolithic systems into microservices while managing common code dependencies. By incorporating build tools such as Bazel and Gradle extensively, ThoughtSpot has managed cross-language builds more effectively, reducing friction in their transition to a microservices-based architecture. The company is also using AI-driven developer productivity tools, including GitHub Copilot, custom AI bots, and AI-assisted code reviews, to support their internal teams and improve efficiency. Additionally, they've created a self-service portal for provisioning containerized environments, empowering developers to request and manage their environments on demand while keeping cloud costs under control. Looking ahead, the future of developer productivity will focus on balancing speed, complexity, and security in an AI-driven landscape, with companies needing to address new challenges such as maintaining code quality and security while relying on AI-generated code.
