Team for Capella

Team for Capella is an add-on for Eclipse Capella that enables multiple team members to collaborate on editing Capella models simultaneously. It is designed to streamline the collaboration process and prevent conflicts that may arise from concurrent updates. This collaborative tool is suitable for companies of all sizes, including small teams and large organizations. It caters to a variety of professions and industries, such as systems engineers, enterprise architects, software developers, and the aerospace and automotive sectors.

Key Features

Simultaneous collaboration: Team for Capella allows multiple users to work together on the same model by automatically locking and indicating any object being edited to other users, ensuring smooth collaboration without conflicts.

Instant updating: Modifications made by one user on a model element are automatically and instantly propagated across all users' views, eliminating the need for manual refreshes and ensuring everyone works with the most up-to-date model elements.

Explicit locking: Users can explicitly lock a set of model elements when they require an extended period to work on them. The lock is released on-demand by the owner, giving users control over access to specific model elements.

Storage on a shared server: Team for Capella operates on a shared server, allowing authorized team members to access and collaborate on models. The server can be administered to manage system status, connected users, and models stored on one or several databases.

Sharing a local project: Users can export their modeling projects from their local environment to the remote repository, enabling seamless sharing with other team members.

Retrieving a remote project: Projects installed on the shared server can be manually imported into the user's environment or automatically saved to a backup server, ensuring easy access and retrieval of remote projects.

Change history: Team for Capella provides a comprehensive history of commits, allowing users to track changes made on shared models. Users can compare versions, view differences, and identify impacted model elements and diagrams.

Secured access: Data stored in the repositories is protected by user authentication using LDAP. SSL encryption ensures secure exchanges between clients and databases. Access rights can be defined based on user profiles, enhancing data security.

Flexible licensing mode: Team for Capella offers a floating licensing model, allowing for flexible deployment. Licenses can be shared among multiple users over time, and a remote desktop mechanism is supported for low network bandwidth situations. Large organizations can deploy multiple Team for Capella servers simultaneously to meet their specific needs.
