Now that WANdisco has released an integration between Git MultiSite and GitLab, it’s worth putting the entire Git lineup at WANdisco into perspective.
Git MultiSite is the core product providing active-active replication of Git repository data. This underpins our efforts to make Git more reliable and better performing. Active-active replication means that you have full use of your Git data at several locations, not just in a single ‘master’ Git server. You get full high availability and disaster recovery out of the box, and you can load balance your end user and build demands between several Git servers. Plus, users at every location get fast local read and write access. As one of our customers recently pointed out, trying to make regular Git mirrors work this way requires a few man-years of effort.
On top of Git MultiSite you have three options for user management, security, and collaboration.
- Use WANdisco’s Access Control Plus for unified, scalable user and permission management. It features granular permissions, delegated team management, and full integration with SVN MultiSite Plus for unified Subversion-Git administration.
- Use Gerrit to take advantage of powerful continuous review workflows that underpin the Android community.
- Use GitLab for an enterprise-grade social coding and collaboration platform.
Not sure which direction to take? Our solution architects help you understand how to choose between Subversion, Git, and all the other tools that you have to contend with.
