"I bought the Pivotal way hook line and sinker after about a month, from test-driven development to agile software construction to Pivotal Tracker. It changed my view of the way to build software—definitely a change for the better."
"Traveling on railways in India is very popular because rail is the cheapest, safest, and fastest mode of transportation. Because the online system for reserved tickets was so slow, during peak times, people used to have to go to stations, wait in long lines and book tickets at railway counters. But now, more bookings are being done on the Internet than in-person and there are hardly any lines at the counters."
"One thing is very clear. Cloud Foundry and Pivotal Cloud Foundry are helping Axel Springer transform its media businesses worldwide. The Chairman and CEO’s mission has directed our digital teams to deliver a smart, cost effective, green IT infrastructure. With Pivotal Cloud Foundry, we have quickly improved time to market, bringing more products to our readers. We are developing with flexibility, improving quality, and strengthening collaboration— all while reducing costs."
"Even with our massive data volumes, Pivotal is delivering the short processing times we were hoping for. Just as importantly, Pivotal Greenplum Database presents the results of our analysis in dashboard views that are easy for our non-technical users to access. That means faster answers to business questions — and better, timelier decisions."
"For us, it’s all about performance. The Pivotal DCA helps us stay ahead and innovate. Rather than simply supplying reports to customers upon request, we pull together customized data sets that answer questions customers haven’t even thought of yet."
"Faster time-to-market is essential because it helps us strengthen our competitive position. The Pivotal DCA delivers the insights we need to make better decisions that drive the business forward."
"Our testing showed that for the same amount of storage, migrating to a system running Pivotal Greenplum Database would cost 50 percent less than other systems running a MPP solution."
"I built the application in one weekend, leveraging components built on the Spring framework – saving six months of work. I would never have been able to pull that off without Spring."
"In Groovy and Grails it is easy to build a prototype very fast and show it to the client. This is the perfect tool for prototyping."
"Within a week, I was able to build a prototype in Groovy and Grails that could talk to the back-end system. If we tried to do that in Struts, it would take at least two months to get to that level, because Grails has so much boilerplate code already built in."
"Spring accelerates our development, testing and research cycle. Using Spring has shortened our project development time by about a third and gives us a significantly more reliable and easier to manage system than we had previously."
"With Web Flow, we are now able to change the flows much faster, cutting down on our implementation time by 30%. That helps banks launch their websites much faster with our software, making our product more attractive to customers."
"In a traditional Java project, we can spend weeks writing the initial code to set up the infrastructure, which is just the ‘plumbing’ code. In Groovy and Grails, we can do that in a couple of hours with plugins."
"Customer confidence in Spring’s performance helps us close sales. When we propose Spring as an architecture, new clients are very comfortable."
"Spring enables a superior architecture over custom frameworks, which means testability is better. This results in fewer bugs and a more robust end product."
