About IC Manage
IC Manage provides next generation design management solutions for hardware and software design, enabling companies to efficiently and reliably manage single and multi-site development efforts.
IC Manage delivers two product lines to our customers:
IC Manage GDP
IC Manage provides a comprehensive solution for managing IC Design on a global basis. Utilizing the Perforce engine, IC Manage has created a truly complete, robust and reliable system for managing IC design and making designers more productive.
IC Manage GDP has the highest capacity and scalability in the industry. Its transaction-based approach provides high integrity and near real-time worldwide delivery. IC Manage’s streaming TCP architecture delivers performance approaching wire speed across long latency networks. It also includes IT integration for hot backup, high availability, and disaster recovery for 24x7 enterprise availability.
Perforce Infrastructure Solutions
IC Manage also provides IT infrastructure solutions for the Perforce Fast SCM system, a powerful software configuration management (SCM) solution for managing software development. To deliver availability and performance in medium and large scale Perforce deployments, IC Manage provides 1) Software tools for database replication, hot-backup, content distribution, disaster recovery and scalable push/pull synchronization and 2) Perforce server appliances optimized to get up to 20x Perforce database performance.
Our Perforce infrastructure solution development was driven by the large data sizes utilized by IC Manage GDP. These infrastructure solutions are available separately for larger or distributed software development projects or if better IT integration is needed. They are used by many of our customers in their software or hardware build and verification systems.
