CA Technologies übernimmt Hyperformix
Weitere Verstärkung des Virtualization Management Portfolios.
CA Technologies Bolsters Its Virtualization Management Portfolio with Agreement to Acquire Hyperformix
Hyperformix’ Capacity Management Solutions Will Help CA Technologies Accelerate the Customer Journey from Virtualization to the Cloud
ISLANDIA, N.Y. September 28, 2010 - CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) announced today a definitive agreement to buy Hyperformix, a leading provider of capacity management software for dynamic physical, virtual, and cloud IT infrastructures. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
“Virtualization capacity management is among customers’ most critical IT management needs,” said Roger Pilc, general manager of CA Technologies Virtualization and Automation customer solutions business. “An important aspect of our virtualization and cloud strategies is to help customers overcome the ‘VM stall' challenges they encounter as they roll out virtualization and progress to a dynamic, cloud-based data center architecture. Hyperformix strengthens our ability to help organizations advance their IT infrastructures to benefit the business.”
Capacity management enables customers to discover how physical, virtual, hardware, software, storage, and network resources are being used, and to determine what resources will be needed in the future. The technology also helps customers optimize the deployment of those resources to meet business objectives.
The acquisition of Hyperformix will help CA Technologies extend its leadership in virtualization management, with market-leading virtualization capacity management capabilities that complement its existing virtualization, automation, and assurance solutions. Together these technologies will comprise a comprehensive, integrated solution to help customers evolve from an entry-level virtualization project to a mature dynamic data center and private cloud operation.
Specifically, the combination of CA Technologies and Hyperformix will help organizations:
• Overcome challenges such as VM Sprawl (uncontrolled VM deployments) and VM Stall (the inability to move beyond initial virtualization of 20-30 percent of servers);
• Ensure application performance and service level agreements; and
• Deliver cost, agility and availability benefits to the business through faster and more reliable data center consolidations, virtualization rollouts, platform refreshes and application migrations.
CA Technologies and Hyperformix share many customers and partners. This acquisition presents new opportunities for expanding and strengthening relationships with those organizations, while opening new opportunities with ones whose goal is to advance their virtualization operations.
“Capacity management is an important discipline for customers attempting to expand their virtualization and private cloud deployments,” said Peter Klante, President and CEO, Hyperformix. “As a virtualization rollout progresses through the enterprise, insight and comprehensive planning are required to realize its potential. CA Technologies and Hyperformix will deliver on that critical need.”
The transaction is expected to close within CA Technologies third fiscal quarter, which ends December 31, 2010. Hyperformix’ operations and its employees will become part of the Virtualization and Automation business at CA Technologies. CA Technologies intends to expand its integrations with Hyperformix’ solutions to include the CA Virtual, CA Service Automation, CA Service Assurance and CA Cloud portfolios.
