 |
 |
|
| Supports GNU Make, Nmake, Visual Studio, SCons, Jam, and Ant plus Eclipse and Visual Studio IDEs |
 |
 |
 |
Requires virtually no change to scripts or the way developers work |
|
| Supports build tools and other types of controllers which support a parallel or multithreaded execution model |
 |
 |
 |
Electrify feature automatically distributes commands requiring almost no changes to existing system |
|
| Automatic performance improvement and minimal maintenance |
 |
 |
 |
Electric Make® updates dependency information after every build, so that even as files evolve, performance is automatically maintained |
|
| Provides centralized "build-as-a-service" |
 |
 |
 |
Sharing and centralizing compute resources delivers hardware utilization gains and cost savings over individual or decentralized build machines |
|
| |
| Dynamic dependency discovery and management |
 |
 |
 |
Patented technology delivers as much as 20x faster builds over home-grown or commercial build management tools |
|
| Accurate incremental builds |
 |
 |
 |
Captures complete dependency information with no human intervention for reliable incremental builds |
|
| Network performance optimization |
 |
 |
 |
On-the-fly compression and agent caching ensure that the LAN isn’t a bottleneck and ElectricAccelerator can even be used on ordinary developer desktops |
|
| Failover support |
 |
 |
 |
Ensures consistent performance should a node in the cluster fail |
|
| Compiler- and SCM agnostic |
 |
 |
 |
Works with any compiler or configuration management system |
|
| No down time for system administration |
 |
 |
 |
No need to take the entire cluster down for scheduled maintenance or upgrades |
|
| Virtualizes build configurations |
 |
 |
 |
No need to configure cluster for specific build environments, or maintain multiple VM images; automatically handle configuration changes
|
|
| Tools from the build machine mirrored dynamically to the cluster |
 |
 |
 |
Simplifies the administration load of supporting multiple tool configurations |
|
| Grid integrations |
 |
 |
 |
Integrated with Platform LSF grid engine to leverage the power of grid computing for software builds and eliminate the need for standalone build labs |
|
