About WANdisco

Since 2001 WANdisco has set out to push the limits of what can be achieved with
distributed systems deployed on a Wide Area Network (WAN). The result of these
efforts is new technology that fundamentally changes the way distributed nodes, or
servers, interact to provide unprecedented levels of reliability, availability and
scalability (RAS) enabling the internet to realize its full potential. WANdisco has
applied this technology to the development of its suite of multi-site SCM solutions
for CVS, CVSNT, and Subversion. For the first time a development team can truly be
spread-out across the world and work as one unit, in real-time.

Global 2000 companies rely on WANdisco\'s suite of SCM solutions for CVS, CVSNT and
Subversion to enable them to distribute work based on where their talent is located,
rather than on the basis of time-zone constraints. This results in dramatically
reduced costs and significantly improved utilization of scarce resources.
