Codice Software Released Plastic SCM 2.0 for Multiserver Deployments
Codice, a private provider of software solutions, has unveiled commercial revision control package, Plastic SCM 2.0. It is a cross-platform software configuration management solution that streamlines how software applications are assembled.
Plastic SCM offers an emphasis on creating branches with low overhead, along with a custom server. Plastic SCM features distributed server for those developing laptops. It can be used on multiple platforms, including Windows, Linux and MacOS operating systems.
Plastic SCM runs as a host application and a client application. The host is able to connect to other repositories and pass along changes stored on a local host application.
The developers could use full capabilities of the revision control system, with full branching and merging capabilities. When network connectivity is restored, the local SCM host can distribute information about local branches and retrieve information from remote repositories, without impacting the local developer. Administrators can also import branches and related data from CVS, Visual Sourcesafe, and Subversion into Plastic SCM.
Plastic SCM is offered with two different licensing modes, Professional Edition, and Standard Edition. It is also offered for no charge to open source project leaders and to academia. A trial version is also available.
