Datasheet: IBM® Rational® Synergy

In today’s globalized economy, innovation holds the key to survival and growth. Organizations are profiting from skills and capital arbitrage through distributed resources. To support these dispersed, collaborative teams, you need a unifying platform that enables their cooperation for maximized value creation. IBM® Rational® Synergy provides that platform by bringing together your global teams on a centralized platform for systems and software development. Together with its bottom-up support for achieving agility through task-based configuration management and advanced SCM capabilities, you can enable seamless collaboration for optimal value.

White Paper: Driving Business Success with Software Reuse

As enterprise software systems continue to grow in complexity, IT is struggling to find better ways to meet the increasing business demands. With pressure to create higher quality software more quickly and at less cost, enterprise IT must find ways to stream-line development. One way that organizations are meeting this challenge is by implementing ways to drive a successful software reuse initiative. While component-based development (CBD) is not new, immature technologies and short-term approaches have hindered previous efforts and have soured some on the CBD journey. But that is changing, and many are looking at CBD with fresh eyes.

Datasheet: IBM Rational Build Forge, Telelogic Synergy and Telelogic Change

IBM® Rational® Build Forge® and Telelogic® Synergy™ compress development cycles and increase software quality by creating an optimized software development and delivery environment. With this product combination, you overcome manual, cumbersome change, configuration and build processes and formalize an automated process framework for integrated software development.

Paper: Achieving true collaboration in global development.

The benefits of working globally are many, including savings in time and money and the ability to take advantage of skills that may not be available locally. But outsourcing and its related practice, global distributed development (GDD)—in which teams of software developers who may be either employees or outsourced workers are located across geographies—also presents challenges.IBM® Rational® Synergy provides capabilities that help software development teams work faster and more easily by increasing communication and collaboration. It can accelerate release and build management processes, optimize the efficiency of limited development resources and unite distributed development teams.
