Summary

Proximus, a leading Belgian telecommunication company, has successfully integrated GitLab into its CI/CD DevOps workflow to enhance its application development and deployment processes. Initially using ClearCase, Proximus switched to GitLab in 2016 due to its user-friendliness and broader compatibility, starting with GitLab CE and later upgrading to GitLab EE to access additional features like LDAP groups and push rules. This transition facilitated a significant increase in project numbers and user adoption, with projects growing to 1,700 and users to nearly 1,000 by the end of 2018. Despite challenges such as maintaining a stable environment amid rapid growth and resource consumption issues due to numerous pipelines, Proximus effectively managed these with GitLab's features, resulting in a substantial reduction in support tickets by 80 percent in the first year. The company plans to continue expanding its GitLab environment, leveraging its benefits for enhanced developer support and efficiency.
