WANdisco Announces Subversion MultiSite Software Appliance

[Elaine]

SAN RAMON, CA – January 7, 2009 – WANdisco, a leading provider of
infrastructure software for replication, scalability & high
availability, today announced the availability of the Subversion
MultiSite Software Appliance. This virtual software appliance provides
immediate, real and tangible benefits to organizations by minimizing
ongoing maintenance and administration costs and dramatically reducing
deployment time. A globally distributed IT organization can literally
be up and running in minutes. Just download, turn it on, and it works.

The appliance includes Subversion, Apache, a fully supported version
of Linux and WANdisco's award-winning multi-site replication
technology that allows distributed developers to collaborate at LAN-
speed over a WAN, instead of working in silos. In addition, the
appliance has no reliance on hardware or software configurations and
can run in any target virtualization environment including VMware ESX,
Citrix XenServer, and Windows with Hyper-V.

Ongoing maintenance and support are also dramatically simplified with
automatic updates for all appliance components, including Subversion,
Apache, Linux and WANdisco. There are no more one-off manual upgrades
and patches. An entire multi-site implementation can be monitored and
administered from a single location. This solution combines the zero-
latency deployment offered by hosted Software as a Service (SaaS)
solutions for Subversion, with all of the flexibility, control and
security of traditional behind the firewall implementations.

WANdisco has partnered with rPath, the pioneer in the virtual
appliance approach for application distribution and management, to
automate the creation, configuration, management and maintenance of
application images for virtualized and cloud computing environments.

"Virtualization and cloud computing are important topics in IT
organizations today because they promise a quick way to cut server
costs without hurting the service provided to the business," said Ian
Finley vice president of AMR Research. "However, moving to a
virtualized environment is not simple, especially with packaged
applications, because few are enabled for these environments today.
WANdisco is making it easier for its customers to leverage
virtualization and cut server costs. It's also showing IT
organizations how they can use rPath to do the same with their custom
applications."

"Customers told us that they wanted a product that was easy to
install, maintain and use," said David Richards, president and CEO of
WANdisco. "We listened and that was the driver for us to invest
heavily in the creation of this new product."

Billy Marshall, rPath founder and chief strategy officer , said,
"WANdisco is the perfect example of an innovative ISV that understands
the value of virtualization and the cloud, leveraging these
technologies to deliver increased value to their customers by enabling
them to do more with less. In an uncertain economic period, the
ability to stretch resources and contain costs is critical."
