Metallect on May 31 is releasing a plug-in to link its Metallect IQ Server application change management software to the Eclipse development platform.
The Metallect offering is intended to help enterprises minimize risks by gauging impacts of changes to application logic or the underlying database. Metallect views its offering as pertinent to application change management, to SOA implementations and governance, to application portfolio management and to risk management.
Linking change management to the developer tool is critical, Metallect believes. "If you look at impact analysis and a dependency map, if you look at change management throughout the lifecycle, a big portion of it is actually executed by developers," said Metallect CEO Guy Hoffman.
The free plug-in will function with IQ Server 2.4, which starts in price at $100,000.
