Do you need BK?
SCM systems are often a productivity bottleneck.
Inexpensive entry level systems don't solve the problems you need
solved.
Traditional high end systems are resource and administration
intensive.
BitKeeper is light, fast, and exceptionally simple to use, yet it
offers advanced features not found in even the most expensive
traditional systems.
-
Productivity
BitKeeper is a developer's tool, it puts more power in the hands of the
developer while allowing enough structure to manage your projects.
BitKeeper's peer-to-peer and replicated architecture spreads
the load over all your machines, significantly reducing server
and network bottlenecks.
BitKeeper provides a full suite of features to speed up all of the operations
that your developers use most frequently.
-
Reliability
BitKeeper performs regular consistency checks without having to take
your system offline.
BitKeeper's architecture allows your developers to continue working locally
with full functionality even if your server goes down or you experience
a network outage.
And it provides inherent backups through replication.
It is possible and easy to guarantee 24x7 uptime with BitKeeper.
-
Flexibility
BitKeeper is a peer-to-peer system, that seamlessly supports
customized work flows.
Whether a small or large shop, BitKeeper can adapt to your
development process and then grow with you as your needs change.
BitKeeper's Delta Development model epitomizes the flexibility and
scalability that is achievable with our peer-to-peer architecture.
-
Total cost of ownership
The total cost of an SCM solution goes far beyond the price of the
software. With many tools, the real cost lies in administration,
hardware, support, and professional services. With BitKeeper those
costs are negligible.
The replicated nature of BitKeeper means that a PC will work fine
and there is no need for full-time admins.
A
small and cheap PC
can easily support thousands of developers.
It would cost more than a hundred times as much to do the same
thing with other SCM solutions.
-
Support
Our support is without equal in the industry, we are responsive
and will work with you to deploy BitKeeper effectively,
at no extra charge. BitMover does not have multiple layers of
support, you can talk directly to an engineer that can solve your
issues.
Our customers frequently describe our support as the best they've
ever received.
-
Remote/distributed development
With centralized client/server SCM systems, all remote people and teams
suffer.
BitKeeper is a peer-to-peer system based on a replicated database.
All teams become local and enjoy local performance in a replicated
system.
-
Merging
BitKeeper's ProMerge has best-in-class merge algorithms and merge tools
which reduce merge time to 1/10th of the time required by other
tools. Many customers claim that the man hours savings in merging
alone more than covers the software cost.
-
Reproducibility
BitKeeper guarantees 100% accurate rollback of all file contents,
names, and permissions without requiring any forethought on your
part.
While other systems require that you remember to tag the tree,
BitKeeper has no such requirement;
all changes are potential rollback points.
-
Reviewing and debugging code
BitKeeper maintains more history detail with more accuracy than
any other tool currently available. We also have a suite of tools
that allow you to get a quick picture of your development history
at a high level and instantly delve into specific detail.
-
Renames
BitKeeper gets this right, files may be renamed at any time, in
any work space, and the renames are handled correctly in all
cases.
