1 IBM Software Group ® Rational Strategic Direction – Software Change Management

2 IBM Software Group | Rational software Software Change Management: Concept and Value Ensure predictable results Change Management Software Configuration Management Software Configuration Management Unified Change Management (UCM) Unified Change Management (UCM) Requirements Defects, Tests, Impact analysis Version Control Build Management Team Management and Metrics IBM SCM Products Team –Based Software Configuration Management Requirements Management Project Tracking Process Guidance Rational Suite ® Team Unifying Platform  Rational ClearCase ®  IBM z/OS ™ SCLM Suite  Rational ClearQuest ®  Rational RequisitePro ®  Rational ProjectConsole  Rational Unified Process ®  Software Change Management  Manage the impact of change  Secure development assets  Track progress and ROI

3 IBM Software Group | Rational software Strategic Drivers: Software Change Management Maximizing software development team results by delivering a heterogeneous, open, and enterprise scalable software team platform that has the lowest cost of ownership Software Change Management Analyze & Report Analyze & Report Manage Requirements Model & Design Model & Design Develop Test Configure & Deploy Configure & Deploy Run Monitor & Manage Monitor & Manage Enhance enterprise capabilities, performance, and scalability of lifecycle change management Facilitate distributed teams and remote workers with improved WAN access Simplify administration and deployment to reduce cost of ownership Provide an open solution built on industry standards

4 IBM Software Group | Rational software The Challenges SCM Solutions Address 1.Managing Change to Software Artifacts Developing, managing, and integrating thousands of changes to hundreds of thousands of software files to deliver a single consistent software application. 2.Integrating Lifecycle Activities Managing the team’s work assignments and priorities to account for changing requirements, defects, enhancement requests, and test cases to maximize delivered features and maintain software quality. 3.Managing Software Teams and Metrics Managing software projects and project portfolios to objectively determine current status and return on investment results. Removing barriers in team communication around project goals and project processes and procedures. 4.Build Management and Deployment Automation Reducing application downtime and business interruption due to build and deployment errors in the “lifecycle gap” between engineering and operations.

5 IBM Software Group | Rational software Architectural Drivers GOAL: Enterprise Class Team Infrastructure with Lowest Total Cost of Ownership  Scalable from small teams to large multi-national distributed teams  It means…a tools complexity, administration, deployment, and performance are appropriate to the team size and application size  Easy to install, configure, learn, and use  Support for Open Standards  SWG Componentization and Reuse

6 IBM Software Group | Rational software IBM Software Group Open platforms: Linux, Eclipse... tm HTML IP HTTP XML XQuery UML J2EE Web Services IT Standards IBM and Open Technologies Support for heterogeneous infrastructures Leverage the industry ecosystem Faster integration

7 IBM Software Group | Rational software …around the world Spanning Geography…

8 IBM Software Group ® ClearCase Integrations with IDEs

9 IBM Software Group | Rational software The IBM Software Development Platform : Unique  The Core of the Software Development Platform  Based on Eclipse - Open, Standard, Best in Class  IBM Rational makes Eclipse the best UDE solution Team Support Actionable Best Processes, designed for success Layered capabilities for all practitioners Our Software Development Platform is the “Killer App” for Software Development!

10 IBM Software Group | Rational software Today : IBM Rational ClearCase Integration with WebSphere Studio and Eclipse  New Features for WebSphere Studio 5.1 and Eclipse 2.1  Performance enhancements for large projects  Improved file synchronization support  Enhanced support for Rational XDE  Improved disconnected mode support  Supports project linked resources Context sensitive menus within Navigator and Package views The BEST SCM solution in an IDE!

11 IBM Software Group | Rational software Today : IBM Rational ClearQuest integration with WebSphere Studio and Eclipse  New for ClearQuest v2003!  Run queries and submit defects directly in WebSphere Studio Select a query to run View result set Update Change Request details The BEST DCT solution, delivered in an IDE!
