Calsoft Releases Windows Volume CBT Solution

In today’ rapidly changing and competitive market, a quick go-to-market strategy is key to the success of any product. With the fast growing virtualization and cloud environments, offering a Cloud DR solution that spans ubiquitously from desktops to servers and from physical to virtualized deployments running complex application stacks requires complex technology which can take months to build and perfect.

To this end, Calsoft has announced the launch of its ready to integrate Change Block Tracking (CBT) solution – CSCBT (Calsoft’s Change Block Tracking) – that can reduce time-to-market for companies offering a Cloud DR solution. This readymade solution, which is well-tested and qualified for the Windows environment, can drastically change your engineering OPEX for building the Cloud DR solution. The CSCBT software has been built natively on Windows and supports nearly twenty flavors of Windows operating system ranging from Windows Vista to Windows 2016 and their editions. It’s well-defined public interface to start, stop, get, delete the tracking of Windows volumes, a silent installer for seamless packaging and a pre tested memory and performance footprint fulfill all the requirements for a BC/DR product to quickly “productize” their offering, thereby reducing the go-to-market time. It also supports unlimited multiple, concurrent change tracking of the same volume, each independently optimized to reduce system memory footage while supporting dynamic volume expansion and shrinkage.

Key benefits of using off-the-shelf IP
Time Savings: Designing and developing a customized tool takes a lot of time. By using off-the-shelf IP, companies can save time and reduce time to market.
Cost Savings: The cost of developing a customized product is directly proportional to the time taken for development. Along with the core development cost there are several other peripheral costs associated with developing the product. Using off-the-shelf products directly eliminates all these costs.
Availability: One of the biggest advantages of using off-the-shelf IPs is that you can start using them right from day 1. This is a huge time saver.
Flexibility: Off-the-shelf items give you the flexibility of making changes or revisions based on your business requirement, without changing the core product.
