Neal is a principal with The Infrastructure Group. From his first job developing microcode simulators (chronicled as part of the 1983 Pulitzer prize winning "The Soul of a New Machine" by Tracy Kidder) to the last 6 years providing SCM related consulting, Neal's career has focused on the tools and automation that make organizations more productive.
The Infrastructure Group combines best practices with real world experience to achieve efficient, reliable, effective results. We specialize in source control, change management, and build automation.
Neal has been deploying Perforce at client sites since 1998. Clients have included application developers, embedded system producers, and vendors with 24 x 7 web based operations.
Jam readily adapts to many environments. Because of this, it has been a key tool for clients of The Infrastructure Group. A description of how Jam was used to significantly improve a dynamic build environment is using Jam in a dynamic environment.
Whether you need to deploy Jam, explore its capabilities, or use it as part of your build environment, The Infrastructure Group can assist your organization.
Many organizations choose to convert only the most recent versions of files when they change source control systems. Conversion time, tool feature differences, and the complexity of conversion verification are some of the more frequent reasons for performing these "tip only" conversions.
The Infrastructure Group has provided clients with more than "tip only" conversions. These conversions have included labels, histories, renames, deleted files and other historically significant artifacts. Conversions to Perforce from Visual Source Safe and Clear Case are in our repertoire. Contact us to see how we can assist your organization with similar conversions.
