CA Helps IT Operations Teams Deliver Reliable
and Agile IT Services of AWS, Docker, PureStorage, Nutanix and
OpenStack Enabled Environments
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.
“Adopting a variety of cloud and dynamic infrastructures are a
necessity in today’s application economy, but cost efficiencies and
agility offered by these technologies are lost when operations
staff have to learn and use multiple monitoring tools to identify
potential performance issues,” said Ali Siddiqui, general manager,
Agile Operations, CA Technologies. “By providing insight across the
performance of all of an organization’s IT resources in a single
and unified view, CA UIM gives users the power to choose the right
mix of modern cloud enablement technologies that can best support
new endeavors that can contribute to business growth.”
Maximizing the value of hybrid cloud and dynamic
infrastructures
“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.”
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.
“We provide our customers with flexible cloud services that lets
them 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 optimise 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.”
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 costs, 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.

Additional Customer Feedback
“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.”
“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.”
