Overview

Rapid software development & testing

SystemForge® accelerates the provision of complex server environments for software development & testing, business and Internet services, data centers, etc. through the automation of server-build tasks. This powerful, ground-breaking solution manages the dependencies between hundreds of servers and thousands of fully parameterized install and configuration steps. Quick to implement and with rapid results, SystemForge reduces downtime for Test Teams and shortens deployment windows.

Reduce project delivery time & cost

Delivering ease, speed and consistency in building, adapting and replicating complex, highly agile server environments, SystemForge provides standardization and reusable assets across an organization, where typically many individuals, teams and different methodologies are involved.

With SystemForge, the provisioning of server environments becomes an operational task, rather than a long, complex project. In situations where multiple servers and applications are involved, the time and cost savings are considerable.

Key features and benefits include:

• Reduce time and costs of building, wiping and re-provisioning development & test environments
• Increase time for testing with rapid provision of multiple virtual or physical test environments for more concurrent testing
• Change entire infrastructures and configurations quickly and simply
• Reduce resource required to provide multiple test environments
• Improve consistency and reliability with standardized build processes across multiple development projects
• Leverage virtualization and provide more infrastructure from existing hardware
• Automate installation of in-house written software, which traditionally requires many separate, time consuming error prone installation and configuration steps
