CA Technologies Delivers New Comprehensive Cloud Technology Monitoring Capabilities, Enabling Organizations to Better Optimize Performance of Modern, Dynamic Infrastructures

SINGAPORE, June 23, 2016 – To help IT operations
executives adopting cloud and hybrid IT infrastructures maximize the value of
their resources, CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced new capabilities
in CA Unified Infrastructure
Management (CA UIM). Adding support for performance monitoring
of Docker containers, PureStorage arrays, Nutanix hyperconverged systems and
OpenStack cloud environments and additional capabilities for Amazon Web
Services (AWS) cloud infrastructures, CA UIM offers the most comprehensive coverage
of currently available stand-alone IT monitoring solutions.

“Today, enterprises are increasingly adopting cloud and hybrid
IT infrastructures. However, infrastructure visibility can pose a challenge for
IT departments, making unified monitoring essential for digital business
success,” said Richard Gerdis, vice president, DevOps, Asia Pacific &
Japan, CA Technologies. “The need of the hour is to provide IT teams with the
unified visibility to efficiently and proactively monitor whatever combination
of physical, virtualized, and cloud infrastructure they have in place at any
given time. CA UIM addresses the intensifying need for across-the-board hybrid
cloud monitoring, resulting in a faster mean time to repair, better operational
efficiency and rapid technology adoption.”

“CA UIM has given us the ability to manage our cloud and dynamic
resources with the same rigor as traditional resources,” said Jongho Kang, COO,
Bespin Global. “By identifying over or underutilized resources across our cloud
and on-premises infrastructure, we have been able to ensure high levels of IT
performance and availability for our customers, thereby reducing costs and
boosting their IT and business performance.”

CA UIM encapsulates the complexity of hybrid infrastructures by
providing end-to-end visibility across on-premises, private or public cloud
based infrastructures through a single console. The solution’s open, extensible
architecture enables users to easily extend monitoring to new technologies or
expand monitoring configurations of existing elements, thus eliminating the
need to access and manage other monitoring tools that are brought in as new
infrastructure technology is acquired.

Enhancements to CA UIM’s monitoring coverage of AWS cloud
infrastructures include billing metrics and support for additional services
that provide deeper, actionable insights on performance. Also, to further help
organizations achieve better operational efficiency and lower administrative,
CA UIM provides:

·        Service-centric
and unified analytics capabilities that rapidly identify the root cause of
performance issues, resulting in a faster mean time to repair and better end
user experience

·        Out-of-the-box
support for more than 140 on-premises and cloud technologies

·        Easy
to use templates for configuring monitors that can be applied to groups of
systems

“EMA research has seen increased adoption of hybrid cloud
infrastructure, which can lead to new challenges for IT operations,” said
Shamus McGillicuddy senior analyst, Network Management, Enterprise Management
Associates, Inc. “These new enhancements give CA UIM industry-leading
visibility into a wide variety of infrastructure components and cloud services
that are in use in today’s hybrid IT infrastructures.”

In addition, to ensure the reliability of modern networks such
as SDN/NFV that connect and scale today’s hybrid cloud environments, the
company offers CA Virtual Network Assurance,
which provides extended visibility via a single view of dynamic changes across
the virtual and physical network stack to improve performance, productivity and
agility while accelerating new service deployments.

“We are committed to helping our customers use cloud
infrastructures to reduce costs and increase the efficiency of their operations
while improving the quality of the services they provide to their internal and
external stakeholders,” said Kevin Langford, director, Managed Services, Sirius
Computer Solutions. “More and more of our customers are looking to use cloud
platforms such as Nutanix for private cloud and AWS for public cloud, and the
comprehensive monitoring capabilities in CA UIM are key in enabling us to
ensure the performance and reliability of the diverse set of private cloud
platforms that can best support our customers’ top initiatives.”

“We provide our customers with flexible cloud services that lets
them to choose the features that are right for them – we see this is as key to
aiding the success of our customers’ digital transformations” said Zafir
Yousaf, Cloud Operations and Transformation lead, Telefónica UK Limited (O2).
“CA Unified Infrastructure Management is at the heart of our cloud strategy and
the new capabilities to support Amazon Web Services and OpenStack will be
essential in helping us better optimize our customer workloads. We’ll become more
efficient, while at the same time still meeting the full range of needs from
both our internal and external customers.”

“We offer and use various hybrid, private and public cloud
services to meet the unique needs of our customers, so as a result our IT
environment spans across multiple, dynamic, cloud based infrastructures and
services including OpenStack, Microsoft Azure, SoftLayer, Docker and so on,”
said Arnold Hoogerwerf, IT strategy advisor at KPN, a leading
telecommunications company in the Netherlands. “CA UIM provides comprehensive
capabilities that will enable us to ensure the reliability of our increasingly
fluid and diverse IT infrastructure. It can also help us better pinpoint
problem areas but more importantly: predict future capacity needs so we can
scale up our environment or replace components before there is an issue that
impacts the experience of our internal and external customers.”
