About Teranet

Teranet's Challenge
Teranet relies heavily on the skills of almost 100 code developers. Essential to its success is the work of a software development lifecycle tools team, which is responsible for maintaining the infrastructure that supports product development in the company. This historically included an IBM Rational ClearCase software configuration management solution for source code version control, workspace management, parallel development support and build auditing. In 2010, however, the system was failing to live up to expectations.
“What we found was that ClearCase was very maintenance intensive, It was a prehistoric product and we wanted something that would fit in nicely with the other tools we were using ” says Steve Brackenbury, Senior Systems Architect at Teranet.
Clearvision Solution
Teranet decided, after a trial period using Git, that they were to migrate to Git. As a Git migration expert, with specific expertise in migrating from legacy tools like ClearCase, Clearvision was the obvious choice for a partner.
“We needed to know that we had a good, solid plan that would work. This is where Clearvision really excelled.”
