CA Technologies has announced CA Private Cloud Accelerator for Vblock Platforms, a new solution that drives business service innovation by enabling IT to provide rapid, predictable and secure provisioning and delivery of cloud infrastructure and critical IT and business services.
This is the companys fifth solution certified for use with VCE Vblock Infrastructure Platforms, all of which are based on CA Technologies Unified Automation solutions.
Enterprises and managed service providers (MSPs) use cloud management software to enable their Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) offerings. Many organizations are evaluating and testing converged private cloud architectures, such as Vblock Platforms, that allow IT resources to be dynamically pooled and shared across multiple physical and virtual computing environments.
Over the next two years IT has high expectations for the economic, productivity and performance benefits that can be achieved by using automation, orchestration and self-service provisioning to optimize resource consumption and IT workflows across private cloud environments, said Mary Johnston Turner, research vice president, Enterprise System Management Software, IDC.
CA Private Cloud Accelerator for Vblock Platforms is designed to address these expectations by offering standardization, a rapid provisioning process and performance predictability.
We continue to work with VCE to help customers improve business agility, reduce risk and lower the costs of operating private clouds, said Anna Gong, Vice President, Coud, Virtualization & Service Automation, Asia Pacific, CA Technologies. CA Private Cloud Accelerator for Vblock Platforms can help enterprises and MSPs rapidly deliver services in a private cloud environment, maximizing their investment in VCE Vblock Platforms and driving Business Service Innovation to deliver speed, performance and improved cost efficiencies.
CA Private Cloud Accelerator for Vblock Platforms leverages CA Process Automation and CA Service Catalog to provide customers with a single, unified view and point of control across virtual and private cloud resources.
Out-of-the-box standardized processes allow IT organizations to deliver Vblock Infrastructure Platforms as a service.
CA Service Catalog, accessed through a secure, online portal, empowers users to quickly select and provision the resources they need. CA Process Automation helps ensure that pooled resources are provisioned quickly, with minimal effort. Service usage is metered and associated to departments, cost centers, or users for billing or chargeback.
Every organization is different when it comes to process. CA Private Cloud Accelerator for Vblock Platforms is built on top of an extensible platform that allows IT to easily customize the solution to meet its needs and provide the flexibility to respond dynamically to changing business requirements.
