Electric Cloud, Inc. is a privately held, DevOps optimization software company.

Electric Cloud has three products – ElectricDeploy, ElectricCommander, and ElectricAccelerator.

History

Electric Cloud was founded in April 29, 2002 by John Ousterhout, the creator of Tcl, and John Graham-Cumming.

Electric Cloud released its flagship product, ElectricAccelerator, in November 2002.

On November 6, 2006, ElectricCommander was released.

In December 2009, Electric Cloud created SparkBuild, a free tool that speeds developer builds and provides build debugging facilities. SparkBuild uses the same language features as GNU make and NMAKE, but it adds build avoidance technology and extended logging features to make the tool more effective for developers. SparkBuild also has a graphical tool to read its xml-formatted build logs for debugging and optimization.

Electric Cloud announced its newest product, ElectricDeploy, on July 18, 2012.[1]

Products

On September 28, 2012, ElectricAccelerator 6.2 was released.

ElectricAccelerator Developer Edition is intended for use by an individual developer. ElectricAccelerator Developer Edition is essentially a "drop-in" replacement for GNU make, Microsoft Visual Studio or NMAKE builds.
ElectricInsight is a reporting and visualization tool for ElectricAccelerator. ElectricInsight mines the information produced by ElectricAccelerator to provide a graphical representation of the build structure for performance analysis. It provides information and reports on each job on each node of the build cluster, for diagnostics.

ElectricCommander gives both development and operations visibility and control over their application development and delivery organization.

On December 21, 2012, ElectricCommander 4.2 was released.

ElectricDeploy automates and standardizes application deployments by modeling applications, their related environments, and the processes that deploy and recover applications.
