From ClearCase to Perforce Helix: Breakthroughs in Scalability at Intel

1. From ClearCase to Perforce Helix: Breakthroughs in Scalability at Intel Haim Mousan Senior DevOps Engineer

2. Introduction  Haim Mousan  SCM & ALM/BI Tech Lead  Intel Firmware Department (~600 people, 3 Geos) Responsible for delivery most critical Intel Firmware IPs Those 2 IPs integrated in all Intel Platforms The views expressed in this presentation are my own. I do not speak for Intel and do not represent Intel at any matter. I’m here to share my own private experience with SCM, Perforce usage and integration within our team in Jerusalem.

3. Introduction Desktop Mobile Set-Top Box IOTG Servers Google Glass Sensors Security

4. Problem Statement – 3 years ago…  Unstable coding environment with IBM ClearCase  Unbearable Performance and Usability Issues  Many dozens of methodologies  Development productivity loss  Zero integration with other ALM tools  “Where is my data?” user complaints  3 people supporting ClearCase  Massive increase in Intel’s Projects expected (X6) SCM system is mission critical - cannot afford downtime

5. Solution – Today

6. Solution – Today CI Build Security Scans Legal Scans Perforce  CI • Continuous Integration • Gated check-in • Full release proc. automation

7. Solution – Today ALMCI Build Security Scans Legal Scans Arch Perforce  CI • Continuous Integration • Gated check-in • Full release proc. automation Perforce  ALM • Code link with TFS workitems • Full data traceability

10. Solution – Today!  Entire organization SCM is scaled up  Unified methodologies ~253 core methodologies  Supported by 0.2 people (was 3)  99.9% Stability  Major Performance Increase

11. Solution - Details Phase I:  Migration IBM ClearCase to Perforce Phase II:  Perforce  Continuous Integration (Jenkins/QB)  Perforce  ALM (Microsoft TFS)  Perforce  OLAP Based BI (SharePoint BI)

13. Solution – CCP4 Migration  12 Teams migrated (500 people)  8 weeks – from definitions stage to deployment • Perforce depots setup • Migration scope – repositories, historical labels • Methodology consolidation • Migration script & preparations • Pilot • Training • Deployment

16. Solution – CCP4 Migration  Migration scope – repositories, historical labels  Label 1.0.0.1  Label 1.0.0.10  Label 1.0.0.15  Latest Code  Changelist X  Changelist Y  Changelist Z  #Head Revision

23. Solution – CCP4 Migration  Highlights • Performance cross geos • Training • Migration script development • Methodology enforcement  Lowlights • Methodologies consolidation • Symbolic links • Server charset mismatch

26. Solution – Perforce  CI Build/Scan Test CI Orchestrators Passed Failed Deployment
