Enterprise Automation Platform from CA Technologies Delivers Intelligence for Greater Speed and Efficiency

Singapore – 13 October, 2017 – CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today
announced a major new release of the CA Automic One Automation platform, a unified suite
of automation products enabled to deliver Intelligent Automation for the Modern Software Factory. The latest
release addresses a rapidly growing market that has the potential to reach over
$6B by 2020[1] with critical growth areas in Cloud, Big Data
and DevOps driving Datacenter automation.

“Enterprises
continue to leverage well-defined, highly automated processes to enable
software to be developed in shorter cycles and deployed into production at
higher-velocity,” said Matty Kaffeman, Senior Director, Automic, Asia Pacific
& Japan, CA Technologies. “Intelligent Automation offers the path to
enhancing a more agile enterprise. By enabling enterprises to move from
traditional process automation to Intelligent Business Automation, CA Automic
delivers on the promise of the Modern Software
Factory.”

Unlike other
products on the market that combine different user interfaces, reporting tools,
analytics databases and engines, the CA Automic One Automation Platform
uniquely runs on a single, unified, common platform delivering a comprehensive
business-driven solution.

business:

DevOps tool chain in a remarkable zero-touch self-service manner.

who require Dev & IT to shift to agile and modern application delivery:

o    CA Automic V12.1

The CA Automic One
Automation platform enhances every company’s transformational journey to
deliver an agile business, deploy applications faster, enhance security and
enable automated remediation of application performance.

According to
research by IDC[2] and Forrester[3], CA Technologies
is amongst the top global providers of both Workload Automation and Continuous
Delivery and Release Automation. In September 2017 CA Technologies was
recognized as a Leader in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Application Release
Automation.[4]

Today’s
announcement of the new platform is part of CA Technologies’ ongoing commitment
to enabling intelligent automation for the enterprise. Aligned with bringing
the Modern Software Factory to life for accelerated business transformation, CA
Technologies brings together the full line of automation products from across
the company, including Automic, to empower modern application delivery.

“The speed of
change in the DevOps/Agile space is driving greater needs for seamless control
across the whole process from business needs through development and test to
operations.  Release automation now has to have additional intelligence
around areas such as orchestration, as well as having the capacity to embrace
multi- and hybrid-cloud architectures without the user having to overly concern
themselves around the actual physical aspects of the platform.
Organizations should be looking for systems that not only meet their
requirements now, but where the vendor can already provide pointers as to how
the system will support changing requirements in the future.  With such a
dynamic pace of change, any need to reverse out from a solution chosen now to a
new solution down the line due to a lack of flexibility on the part of the
vendor could be disaster for an organization.” – Clive Longbottom, analyst and
founder, Quocirca.

“CA Technologies
has aligned its DevOps and application release automation tooling with Automic
Release Automation (RA) at its center. CA Automic’s business process approach
is designed for the larger enterprises with heavy-duty release requirements and
has excellent support for new development paradigms such as
containerization.” – Michael Azoff, principal analyst, Ovum.

CA Automic Workload Automation V12.1, CA Automic Release Automation V12.1 and
CA Automic Service Orchestration V12.1 as part of the CA Automic One Automation
Platform are immediately available for general shipment. All plugins are
immediately available on the Automic
Marketplace. Pricing is on demand for non-CA Automic customers.
