Webcast: Black Duck and IBM Rational: Solutions for governing the process of software development
Join us on Wednesday, June 20 at 1:00 EST for a discussion around the business issues of compliance and lifecycle management, and a demonstration of the joint solutions that can help you govern your software development. Software development has changed radically over the past ten years. Routinely third party and open source components are used to boost productivity. But building on code from third parties brings new business and licensing concerns issues that can put software projects at risk. Black Duck Software extends the Rational Software Deployment Platform with solutions to help companies govern how their software assets are created, managed, and licensed. Black Duck Software offers IP governance solutions across the IT lifecycle allowing developers to make informed choices on what components may be used in projects.
