This is the first in a series of blog posts exploring characteristics of development projects to consider when choosing a Software Configuration Management system. A Software Configuration Management (SCM) system is an essential part of almost any effective software development project. It can provide solutions to different challenges faced by the many roles in a development team. These roles include software engineers/developers, project leaders, release engineers, process engineers, engineering managers, and even engineering executives.    Although all software development projects share many common characteristics, the differences between the projects often dictate the degree of sophistication needed in the underlying development tools. Characteristics that drive the need for a highly sophisticated SCM system can include projects with numerous developers, project teams spread across many different physical locations, projects dealing with a huge software system, projects needing tightly controlled security, projects with complex process automation and enforcement requirements, and projects subject to critical regulatory requirements. If you think of increasing sophistication represented by a series of layers, or strata, each of the aforementioned characteristics can push a project into higher strata. Many SCM systems can satisfy the needs in the lower strata.  Few are powerful enough and flexible enough to handle the higher strata. HCL VersionVault is without doubt, the most flexible SCM system in the world. It supports a wide variety of deployment models for local or globally distributed teams; provides a simple process model as well a highly customizable option; includes a wide variety of powerful graphical user interfaces (GUIs) in addition to a comprehensive command line interface (CLI); provides unique build tools that generate a detailed audit trail and enable high-speed parallel builds; and integrates with a wide variety of other tools including Eclipse, Microsoft Visual Studio, Cadence Virtuoso, workflow and lifecycle management/engineering tools, etc. POSSIBLE PROJECT NEEDS TO CONSIDER An SCM...
