  Software development has become increasingly intricate and competitive. Organizations are laser-focused on delivering top-tier products while minimizing the time required for development. With the advancement in technology, a mix of legacy and cutting-edge tools are introduced to the production procedure.
  In the ever-evolving landscape of technology, organizations frequently seek to optimize their operational efficiency and stay abreast of market trends by adopting new tools and solutions. However, transitioning between platforms often necessitates the migration of data – a process associated with challenges and risks.
  API is a piece of software that makes applications more interactive when it comes to data sharing. This enables third-party tools to mash-up data into the Kovair platform and obtains benefits like workflow process decisions, reports engine, and data routing to multiple connected tools. Distributed data from various tools turn into meaningful metrics when collaborated in the Kovair ALM platform framework.

  In today’s fast-paced world, organizations need to be effectively agile to match the ever-changing market needs and keep them responsive to different consumer demands. While business innovation is largely driven by software in this digital age, it is important for enterprises to ensure the rapid release of application updates to win, serve and retain customers’ needs.
  Time, cost, and resource are the biggest management challenges in any project. Cost and effort estimation becomes a gamble without proper insights on project progress. Too often, managers make decisions based on the ongoing customer inputs or the instructions provided by business heads. It is important that decision makers get proper factual data to make the right investment decisions regarding critical information about the portfolios, projects, resources, budget, cost, and risks
  Today’s automotive products have become extremely complex. Automotive engineering demands the use of modernized tools in designing of its development processes for creating such products. Focus has shifted from just the development of hardware components to software driven electronic components in automotive products.
  This white paper outlines the capabilities of the Automotive Solution configured on Kovair ALM Platform, which has been designed to establish seamless collaboration across globally distributed teams and facilitate all stakeholders with the information they need to deliver faster complying with all standards and ensuring safety.
  Value Stream Management Platform applicable to all stakeholders across the enterprise — from CIOs/CTO, to CISOs, portfolio managers, program managers, release managers and team members.

  Kovair DevOps is not just a tool for any one component of DevOps like CP, CI, CD, CT & Continuous Deployment but is a holistic package, which ensures a smooth and successful DevOps journey for an organization.
  Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) and Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) is perhaps the most successful of all engineering practices. Invention of complex systems like the Large Hardon Collider, are the symbols of successful integration between hardware and software systems
  The biggest challenge posed is the accuracy of information flow among the cross-functional teams working on these disparate tools. Though a handful of tool integration solutions are available today, the question lies whether just integration is good enough to bridge the gap.
  ALM is the process of managing software applications from their initial planning through retirement i.e. from business idea generation to when the application no longer has any business value, and is removed from service.
  Defect tracking is one of the key aspects of a software development process. Without getting into the question of whether a defect is major or minor, it is absolutely necessary to log, manage, and fix each and every defect in order to develop a stable and effective application.
  ALM helps organizations implement processes whether it is a simple State-based one or something that is much more advanced (viz. RUP, Extreme Programming etc). Kovair’s visual Process Designer makes it easy to visualize, design and implement development processes
  SCM tool is one of the most widely used and indispensable tools in a software development organization of any size. However, for a complete Application Lifecycle Management (ALM), SCM is just one of many such tools critical for success
  How do you manage a software development project across a number of functionally, geographically, and technologically distributed groups, each with their favorite set of tools, but a complete information island as far as other tools are concerned?
  This article discusses Process tools for Software Development and IT Management and what are the major functionalities, one should look for in such tools. There are not many tools which can be categorized as pure-play software development process management tools.
  Kovair, a technology leader in the domain of Integrated Applications Lifecycle Management – ALM offers several solutions such as Requirements Management, Test Management, Issues and Change Management. Kovair is known for its following four technology value propositions
  Eclipse is known as an industry’s leading Open Source platform for Java based software development. Eclipse as an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is mostly used by the developers. Today, with the growing involvements of multiple stakeholders in almost all phases of software development lifecycle
  Kovair allows you to create as many user-defined or Custom Fields for the Requirements. Attribute Fields can be created based on the following data types some of which are typical but others (highlighted here) are unique to Kovair and lend to the power of Kovair configurability
