Enabling Improved Availability, Management and Control Over Enterprise Development Projects
SANTA ANA, Calif., July 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Starbase Corporation SBAS, a leading provider of enterprise application management solutions designed to speed the software development lifecycle, today announced general availability of StarTeam 5.2, the company's change and configuration management system specifically targeted at increasing the productivity of today's distributed and heterogeneous development teams.
"We have listened to our customers and built into this new release key features and functionality to increase the success of their development efforts," stated Scott Hunter, executive vice president of engineering for Starbase. "In particular, this release reintroduces support for IBM's DB2 database and the Sun Solaris operating system, expands the power of the Replication Manager and StarbaseMPX Server and extends our Web Edition client."
The StarTeam Replication Manager allows development teams to speed and improve the development process by synchronizing all or selected project data between multiple Starbase Servers, either locally or globally. Replication Manager 5.2 now replicates all StarTeam components in a project, including files, change requests, requirements, tasks and topics, as well as the related access rights.
"With the release of StarTeam 5.2, the StarbaseMPX Server becomes the first software configuration management tool in the industry to use a multicast protocol to publish project data updates to client computers," continued Hunter. "A single network broadcast by the StarbaseMPX Server can now accomplish what might take hundreds of network broadcasts without it. This development supports Starbase's ongoing strategy to increase the performance and scalability of the Starbase Server with every release."
StarTeam 5.2 includes new features and updates for StarTeam Web Edition, including new HTML reporting functionality that provides both high level overviews of development projects stored in StarTeam and hyperlinks that drill down to source code detail, improving the overall management and administration of IT projects.
StarTeam delivers a flexible, customizable solution with integrated requirements management, change management, defect tracking, file versioning, threaded discussion and project and task management. These productivity components are fully integrated into one underlying repository and supported by tailorable workflow and process management. StarTeam functionality can be accessed via a wide range of client interfaces for fast adoption, whatever the user skill level or responsibility.
StarTeam 5.2 is available today. For more information or to purchase StarTeam contact your sales representative at 888-782-7700 or visit the website at www.starbase.com .
