Software Change and Configuration Management Capabilities
Borland StarTeam offers a complete range of software change and configuration management capabilities in one integrated platform that supports development teams of all sizes.
-
Comprehensive change package support: A single commit of multiple changes between code branches simplifies change promotion consistent and repeatable merge results.
-
Ease of deployment: A brand new and rapidly deployed web client makes it easy for non-technical project stakeholders to browse and edit repository content while participating in project workflows or download file revisions they require.
-
Tight security: Borland StarTeam encrypts all client-server communications; and its centralized repository ensures that all digital assets are securely stored, with access and modifications controlled by administrator-defined rules.
-
High availability and performance: Caching agents allow you to create a highly distributed environment with a centralized server, yet still provide near network performance for clients.
-
Scalability: Borland StarTeam is available in two editions, StarTeam Enterprise, for small- to medium-sized software development teams, and StarTeam Enterprise Advantage, for large, geographically distributed development teams.
-
Enterprise readiness: 64- bit Windows Server support means more addressable memory, which translates into better performance under load.
