IC Manage also provides IT infrastructure solutions for the Perforce Fast SCM system, a powerful software configuration management (SCM) solution for managing software development. To deliver availability and performance in medium and large scale Perforce deployments, IC Manage provides:

1) Software tools for database replication, hot-backup, content distribution, disaster recovery and scalable push/pull synchronization and

2) Perforce server appliances optimized to get up to 20x Perforce database performance.

Our Perforce infrastructure solution development was driven by the large data sizes utilized by IC Manage GDP. These infrastructure solutions are available separately for larger or distributed software development projects or if better IT integration is needed. They are used by many of our customers in their software or hardware build and verification systems. More...
