Optimized Component Lifecycle Management with Sonatype CLM

2.1. Introduction

The Sonatype CLM Server is the central component of your Sonatype CLM implementation. It allows you to create and store policies, manage access, set configuration items, and review the effect of your policies through a variety or reports.

In addition, it will be the centralized location for ensuring seamless integration to systems such as Eclipse ( IDE integration documented in Chapter 6, Sonatype CLM for IDE), Hudson / Jenkins (the continuous integration server usage documented in Chapter 5, Sonatype CLM and Continuous Integration), and/or the integration with Nexus (repository manager documented in Chapter 7, Sonatype CLM for Repository Managers).

The following chapter will provide everything you need to install and deploy the Sonatype CLM server, as well as make sure you can setup and define access for your team.
