What tools does RUP offer?
What replacements exist in the Open Source and Free Tools world?

Well, first of all, what does IBM Rational® offer, and what is really necessary for small, medium and large projects, say, in the field of WebApplications?

Obviously, since IBM acquired Rational, the site is much less “community” oriented than “commercial product” oriented, and there seems to be an infinite number of those products, but on its IBM Rational Software site there is a breakdown according to RUP disciplines:

• Change and configuration management
  Manage lifecycle assets with process automation, change control, reporting and traceability.

• Design and construction
  Improve productivity in code-centric, model-driven, and rapid application development.

• Process and portfolio management
  Implement and manage enterprise processes and investments using proven tools and practices.

• Requirements and analysis
  Reduce project risk with requirements management and business, use case and data modeling.

• Software quality
  Improve software functionality, reliability, and performance throughout the development project.

• Express Middleware
  Easy to install, fast to deploy products for small and medium businesses.
