Electric Cloud,
a provider of develop and test cloud solutions, has announced it is offering
developers one year of free access to a developer tool that can speed up
application builds by as much as 70 percent.
Sunnyvale,
Calif.-based Electric Cloud said it is offering a one-year subscription of its ElectricAccelerator Developer Edition (EADE) at
no cost for the next 60 days to developers worldwide. Using the application
developer's own multi-core desktop, EADE reliably speeds the build process and
increases productivity—delivering better products faster.
"With
EADE, we're taking our market-leading build acceleration technology and
democratizing it so any developer can quickly and easily see the benefits using
inexpensive and off-the-shelf multi-core machines," said Electric Cloud
CEO Mike Maciag, in a statement. "As more developers move to agile
methodologies and, by extension, more frequent iterations—the necessity for a
solution like EADE is inarguable."
Electric Cloud
officials said EADE ensures fast and accurate builds by identifying and
monitoring dependencies. This patented technology completely automates the
dependency management of software builds, enabling both aggressive and reliable
parallelization across all available cores of the developer's desktop—from four
all the way up to 64. For the next 60 days, Electric Cloud is offering a free
one-year subscription for the four-core version of EADE. This offer includes ElectricInsight, a graphical build analytics tool
that provides build visualization and debugging capabilities.
"With
other solutions, you can choose to be fast and dangerous or slow and safe. With
EADE, you can be both fast and safe," said David Rosen, product manager of
ElectricAccelerator, in a statement.
With this
offer, anyone can download the new version of EADE, install it on a machine and
immediately start recognizing the benefits of a faster build cycle through
parallelization, Electric Cloud said. The first one-year subscription is being
offered at no cost, with $10 per-month subscription pricing after that.
