Full Story
Rakuten, a global e-commerce and fintech conglomerate with 30,000 employees, needed to accelerate software delivery and incident response while maintaining security standards across a complex product ecosystem.
The company integrated OpenAI Codex into three key operational areas: incident response using KQL-based monitoring for root-cause analysis, CI/CD pipelines for automated code review and vulnerability checks, and autonomous full-stack development from partial specifications.
Results were dramatic: mean time to recovery dropped approximately 50%, problems are fixed twice as fast, and full-stack mobile app development that previously took a quarter was compressed into weeks.
