Scalability.
San Ramon, California- (January 10, 2008) -WANdisco, a leading
provider of infrastructure software for replication, scalability and
high availability, today announced two new software products that
create highly available and scalable versions of Subversion and CVS
(concurrent versioning system).
Subversion and CVS are open source version control systems that store
and track changes made to any type of electronic data, including
source code files, web pages, documents, or images. Forrester Research
recently recognized Subversion as the sole leader in the Standalone
Software Configuration Management (SSCM) category in a side-by-side
comparison that included the most popular commercial version control
solutions.
Subversion Clustering and CVS Clustering combine Subversion and CVS
with WANdisco's unique active-active replication technology bring
enterprise class scalability and reliability.
These new software products transform a single-server implementation
into a highly performant distributed or clustered source code
management solution.
Key Features
* Provides clustering to dynamically balance workload across multiple
CVS or Subversion servers at a single location.
* All servers in the cluster are fully readable and writeable at any
time and are kept in sync by WANdisco's totally unique replication
technology.
* Has no single point of failure whatsoever. The approach is truly
shared nothing. There is no sharing of disk, CPU, or memory between
servers.
* Does not rely on a single shared database or filesystem. Each server
in the cluster has its own independent database or filesystem replica
that is kept in sync with all of the others by WANdisco's patented
active-active replication technology.
* Provides failover and automated disaster recovery to insure business
continuity, without any reliance on third party disk mirroring
solutions.
* Can be implemented standalone or in conjunction with WANdisco's
solutions for JIRA to provide a complete, highly reliable and scalable
application lifecycle management solution stack.
"WANdisco's unique technology enables unprecedented levels of
scalability and high availability for Subversion and CVS" said Uttam
Narsu, Former Forrester/Giga Analyst and SCM expert. "Subversion
Clustering and CVS Clustering users will be delighted with the new
levels of performance, scalability and reliability that WANdisco can
offer. I would strongly urge any company who has either installed or
is considering installing CVS or Subversion to look at these products"
WANdisco's replication technology is used by Fortune Global 1000
companies such as AT&T, Honda, NTT and Motorola to achieve high levels
of performance, scalability and reliability for their distributed
software development efforts. Scalability and performance are major
considerations for software development organizations with large
distributed teams and growing repositories of source code, issues,
documentation and other software development artifacts.
"Our customers have been telling us that these products are an
absolute business necessity," said David Richards, President and CEO
of WANdisco. "When combined with WANdisco, CVS and Subversion not only
become massively scalable but also ensure that there is no single
point of failure that would lead to data loss."
