ISLANDIA, N.Y. and COPENHAGEN, Denmark, Oct. 14 /PRNewswire/ -- Today at VMworld Europe
2010, CA Technologies (Nasdaq: CA) announced plans to integrate CA
IT Process Automation Manager with the VMware vCloud™ API. The
integration, which is under development using the VMware vCloud API
in BlueLock's VMware-based public cloud, is intended to enable
process automation and orchestration for providing and consuming
virtual resources in the cloud. It also will empower customers to
deploy and manage virtualized workloads in VMware vCloud-based
private, public and hybrid clouds.
Such integration of CA IT Process Automation Manager and the
VMware vCloud API will facilitate the creation and control of
VMware vApps along with their instantiation, deployment and
operation. In addition, CA Workload Automation customers will be
able to automatically initiate, monitor, and manage workloads in
VMware vCloud API-enabled private, public or hybrid clouds. For
example, this automated process will permit using public clouds as
a bursting option for server capacity on-demand.
"Our CA IT Process Automation Manager and CA Workload Automation
solutions will help enable customers to maximize their investment
in VMware vCloud API-enabled public clouds," said Roger Pilc, general manager, Virtualization and
Automation, CA Technologies. "As customers go beyond
experimentation with public clouds, our integration work will
deliver a solid foundation to automate and manage workloads between
private and public VMware vCloud API-enabled architectures. This
capability can help to significantly lower cost and provide a
compelling ROI."
“Customers will gain new value from their virtualization
investments as CA Technologies extends its automation solutions to
VMware vCloud™-powered service providers through the VMware vCloud
API,” said Parag Patel, vice
president, Global Strategic Alliances, VMware. “Service providers
that leverage the CA Technologies solution running on VMware vCloud
technology will be able to provide enterprises a managed and
assured automation path for application workloads to be run
seamlessly across hybrid clouds, a key enabler as customers drive
toward providing IT as a Service.”
CA IT Process Automation Manager and CA Workload Automation are
critical technologies for IT organizations considering the use of
private and public clouds. They can help customers to lower risks
and contain costs by using process automation to move workloads
across private and public clouds. By automating processes,
workloads can be better managed, monitored, and executed to deliver
improved business outcomes.
"As a certified VMware vCloud™ Datacenter Services provider,
BlueLock is able to provide secure and agile public cloud resources
using the robust VMware vCloud™ functionality," said Pat O'Day,
CTO, BlueLock. "CA Technologies pioneering use of the VMware vCloud
API demonstrates the powerful cloud bursting capabilities of its
innovative process and workload automation solutions."
CA Technologies will be demonstrating the integration of CA IT
Process Automation Manager and the VMware vCloud API in booth 40
throughout VMworld Europe 2010.
