CA Technologies IT Management Solutions to Help Ensure the Delivery and Operational Performance of Dimension Data's Cloud Services
ISLANDIA, N.Y. and SINGAPORE, June 20, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) and Dimension Data Asia Pacific (formerly known as Datacraft Asia) today announced they are collaborating to drive enterprise cloud adoption throughout Asia Pacific. Dimension Data has developed Operations–as-a-Service (OAAS) offerings based on CA Technologies virtualization management, service automation, capacity management, and service assurance solutions to operate Cloud Infrastructure.
Dimension Data's OAAS offerings address clients' needs to maintain control of service delivery and assure the performance of IT and business services across private, public and hybrid clouds. The offerings are designed to help customers achieve greater business agility, reduce risk, and control costs.
"Cloud ecosystems must be fueled by speed, innovation, and scale to thrive," said Dexter Wee, general manager for Performance Optimization, Dimension Data Asia Pacific. "Working with CA Technologies gives us the competitive advantage by allowing us to combine the best new technology with our expertise in hardware and operations management. In turn, this helps our clients deliver better business results without being bogged down by IT complexity."
Accelerating IT and business service delivery
CA Technologies virtualization management, service automation, and capacity management solutions help Dimension Data's Asia Pacific clients accelerate IT and business service delivery while simultaneously minimizing cost and risk. For example, CA Automation Suite for Data Centers enables organizations to simplify, control, and dynamically automate service delivery across heterogeneous physical, virtual and cloud environments. In addition, CA Capacity Manager helps to guarantee service levels to the business, make the right IT investment decisions with confidence, and clearly communicate the cost and value of IT to stakeholders across the enterprise.
Enhancing service performance
CA Technologies service assurance solutions, such as CA Application Performance Management, CA Infrastructure Management, and CA Service Operations Management, help Dimension Data improve service performance by uniquely linking real end-user experience, transactions, and applications with the underlying systems and network infrastructure. This dramatically simplified approach to IT management enables customers to better understand the health, risk and performance of their IT and business services, applications and transactions, and to actively manage the quality of the end-user experience.
"Dimension Data has a large footprint in enterprise data centres across Asia Pacific and is an ideal partner for CA Technologies in the region's fast-growing cloud computing market," Tan Kwang Meng, vice president, Partners and Alliances, CA Technologies, Asia Pacific. "We are excited that they have committed to us by investing in personnel skilled in our solutions. We look forward to continued collaboration."
Dimension Data Asia Pacific continues to be a leader in embracing CA Technologies in the region. Under the recently announced partner program, CA Technologies is enabling and investing in partners based on their capability to develop unique solutions based on the company's products.
In addition to collaborating with CA Technologies to drive its OaaS offerings, Dimension Data Asia Pacific is an authorized reseller of CA Technologies service assurance, service automation and virtualization management solutions through its systems integration (SI) business.
