ElectricInsight — Software build analytics
ElectricInsight® is the only tool to visually depict the structure of a software build, down to the file level, empowering build managers to pinpoint performance problems or conflicts in a build. An add-on to ElectricAccelerator, ElectricInsight mines the information produced by ElectricAccelerator to provide an easy-to-understand, graphical representation of the build structure for performance analysis.
It provides detailed information and reports on each job on each node of the build cluster, for at-a-glance diagnostics. And it can predict and model how build times would be impacted by adding nodes to the ElectricAccelerator cluster, to help guide hardware investment decisions.
With ElectricInsight, instead of manually pouring over tens of thousands of lines in a build output file, error detection and performance tuning can now be done in seconds. Your teams can dramatically reduce time and costs associated with manual build maintenance tasks.
What can you learn about a software build using ElectricInsight?
- Are there any unnecessary serializations that are slowing the build down?
- Are there gaps where agents are not busy (and can I gain greater parallelism if I fix that)?
- Which are the longest job chains?
- Which files are being modified (created, updated, deleted) multiple times?
- Where exactly are the dependencies?
- If I added more agents to my cluster, how fast could it go?
View fine-grained, file-level detail on each build job to quickly perform diagnostics and improve build performance.
