DOORS facilitates the adoption of a chain toward DevOps architectures. Using all the IBM Rational tools, we can trace all activities related to a project, from beginning to design to development. For example, we use Rational Rhapsody to design models, incorporate requirements, and then generate software from those models. We also use Rational Team Concert to plan tests and Jenkins for continuous delivery.

We use IBM Rational DOORS to migrate from DOORS to other systems like MagicDraw. Additionally, we can accept data from these systems and migrate it for storage. This process involves syncing data between various applications.

The solution is used to meet the requirements of system design from the user level to the supplier level, let's say. So it is used to have all the requirements integrated into only one database and link them with the different suppliers or stakeholders. So that's the main use, and we use it for those databases, basically.

We use IBM Rational DOORS for listing requirements. It's a very powerful software for that. All of the specifications for the project are put inside, and then you can link them to all the documents, architecture, and disciplines.

There are numerous projects that we are using with IBM Rational DOORS. They are isolated from each other and then we receive requirements from outside sources, load them into DOORS, and use them to do traceability into architectures developed in MagicDraw.

I am working as Rational DOORS Support since 2014 . We have a huge DOORS database around 2Tb which is also mirrored in order to increase the tasks on it like reporting ,DXL develop , Requirements Management and Test Management. Also in relation with Customers we use different exchange methods: Reqif, XLS,DSF, PDF ,XML files , so a large number of possibilities for information's and communications exchanges.

I use DOORS to support my customers, who are heavy users of the tool. I try to figure out what's wrong whenever they have some issues. For example, if they need some help, I use the tool to recreate my customers' environments and work with it to find solutions for them. About 10 people in my company do the same thing as me.

We use it to manage requirements. For the defense projects, we basically do a waterfall design methodology. So, we input the customer's requirements at the top level, and we flow down through all of the design requirements and the testing requirements. We keep it all managed through DOORS.

We had a large number of requirements coming in as a federal contractor and we put them in DOORS. We did exports from that to map those requirements to what we were doing and the architecture that we were building. We did that in MagicDraw, which we attempted to integrate with DOORS.

I am a consultant and this is one of the solutions that my company uses to help our clients. Rational DOORS is used to help our customers with system engineering. I use it to design complex systems like trains and cars. DOORS is used to collect all of the requirements for these big systems and then we try to organize the requirements. We make sure that the system functions in compliance with the requirements.
