New Mainframe Innovations Help Customers Speed
Time to Resolution by 5X, Reduce Insider Threats and Cut
Operational Expenses by 25 Percent
CA WORLD ’17 -- CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today announced new,
modern mainframe solutions that help organizations gain insights to
predict and remediate performance issues automatically, protect
customer privacy, drive agility and decrease costs. With CA
Mainframe Operational Intelligence, CA Trusted Access Manager for Z
and CA Dynamic Capacity Intelligence, companies can leverage
analytics and machine-learning to increase digital trust with their
customers.
“It’s critical to lay the foundation of digital trust with 80
percent of the world’s corporate data residing on mainframes that
run 68 percent of the world’s production workloads,” said Ashok
Reddy, general manager, Mainframe, CA Technologies. “Digital trust
is essential to enable enterprises to verify people, protect data
and assure app integrity and performance. Through A.I. and
machine-learning powered intelligent automation, CA’s new mainframe
solutions enable increased insights across broader sets of data.
This will help businesses manage retiring skills through
intelligent automation, while increasing security, scalability and
flexibility on their current platforms, including IBM Z, in a
secure and trusted environment.”
Earlier prevention, faster resolution with
machine-learning
CA Mainframe Operational Intelligence uses machine-learning and
automation to capture patterns, triggering dynamic and
reliable remediation. The solution builds on anomaly detection so
users can predict issues sooner and automate resolution before
service level agreements (SLAs) are impacted.
Available with an IBM System Management Facilities (SMF)
Adapter, customers can now absorb additional data directly from the
IBM Z environment to gather intelligence from mainframe data
outside of CA products. This is key because when it comes to
machine learning and intelligence, the wider the set of data, the
more accurate the predictions.
“Supporting a variety of new business initiatives, our IT
environment continues to grow more complex,” said Seth Miller,
director, Enterprise Server Resource Planning and Automation, AIG.
“We are looking to incorporate machine-learning and intelligence to
simplify and improve our IT operations to further reduce costs
while providing an outstanding customer experience.”
Reinforcing trust in the next era of cyber threats
Almost two billion data records around the world were lost or
stolen by cyberattacks in the first half of 2017, according to the
latest findings by digital security provider Gemalto1, and of the
65 companies evaluated, the breach cost shareholders over $52.40
billion in total.
To help manage risk and maintain customer trust, CA is boosting
enterprise security with CA Trusted Access Manager for Z, the only
mainframe solution on the market which enables security leaders to
restrict and monitor all activity by privileged identities on the
mainframe. Organizations can better manage their data and address
security and compliance needs with the CA mainframe security suite
that includes CA Data Content Discovery and CA Compliance Event
Manager that covers new classes of data, new US and
European regulatory requirements.
"Security and the risk associated with cybercrime is a rising
concern for all enterprises," said Mark Anzani, vice president of
strategy, IBM Z. "With IBM z14 and the solutions CA provides, our
mutual customers can address these security and compliance
challenges, while innovating rapidly to drive their business."
Controlling costs in the application economy
With CA Dynamic Capacity Intelligence, businesses can avoid
unplanned spikes in capacity usage to better manage costs by
achieving SLA objectives with predictable monthly license charges.
Customers can continually analyze workloads and dynamically move
capacity to where and when it’s needed, providing IT and business
stakeholders a predictable and proactive way to ensure critical
workloads are completed.
“While lowering costs is important, arguably IT needs to
guarantee SLA objectives for critical workloads,” said Manfred
Hartmann, managing director, MHB IT Consulting. “I have
observed that CA Dynamic Capacity Intelligence provides rapid
customer value by streamlining operations, while also ensuring
critical workloads received the capacity they needed. It also
helped predict costs more accurately, which for one company
resulted in nearly a 10 percent cost reduction.”
CA Technologies is showcasing over twenty innovations and
enhancements across the portfolio at CA World

adapt to change, as well as evolve existing technology investments
