CA Technologies Refreshes Applications Analytics Services; Rick Fitz Comments

CA Technologies has introduced a fresh version of its analytics services that intend to help customers identify resources needed for applications.

These new analytics capabilities are designed to help organizations manage risks of running applications in mainframe, distributed, virtual and hybrid cloud environments, CA said Monday.

The updated CA Capacity Management services work to analyze mainframe capacity, preview application performance, calculate costs of cloud transition, preserve capacity for future tasks and expand the CA Infrastructure Management and Microsoft System Center Operations Manager.

Rick Fitz, CA senior vice president of product management and service assurance, said the company aims to help businesses deliver services and schedule their investments.

CA Capacity Management’s operational intelligence works to help customers determine how changes in workloads, configurations and platforms will affect their business performance and response time, CA says.

The platforms include Amazon, Microsoft, Rackspace, Savvis, Verizon Terremark, VMware, Windows, Linux and z/OS.
