Major update to the CloudBees Accelerator Visual Studio Integration

Written by: Electric Bee

Earlier this week, CloudBees announced the immediate availability of the CloudBees Accelerator Visual Studio Integration v4.0 . For any user of CloudBees Accelerator in a Visual Stuio environment, this new release contains a number of significant usability and performance enhancing capabilities:

  • Visual Studio IDE Integration
    Major modernization of the CloudBees Accelerator Visual Studio IDE integration, significantly enhancing configuration and usage for any developer looking to accelerate their Visual Studio based builds.

  • Toolchain Virtualization
    The Toolchain Virtualization feature allows CloudBees Accelerator to virtualize and distribute the Visual Studio toolchain from the build client, hence eliminating the need for agent-side configuration of the Visual Studio environment and dramatically simplifying initial setup of an CloudBees Accelerator deployment in a Visual Studio environment.

  • Improved default settings for enhanced performance out-of the box

For reference, below are a couple of screenshots from the new Visual Studio IDE Integration:
