Dynamic Storage for Mainframe Data on Microsoft
Azure to be Previewed at CA World ’14
CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today announced an extended alliance
with Microsoft Corp. that will help broaden enterprise cloud
utility across a multi-platform IT environment to improve business
services and manage costs. A demonstration of the first CA
solution, CA Cloud Storage for System z, featuring Microsoft Azure,
will be previewed at CA World ’14.
“Hybrid enterprise environments are the norm today and CIOs need
to bridge and connect those systems to provide improved value and
cost efficiencies to the business. Our extended alliance with
Microsoft will help our shared customers optimize their hybrid IT
environment and combine mainframe capabilities with Azure to
provide the flexibility and agility required to respond to critical
business needs,” said Michael Madden, general manager, Mainframe,
CA Technologies.
CA Cloud Storage for System z, when used with Azure and a third
party cloud storage appliance, can help enterprise customers
improve business service delivery by storing, accessing, retrieving
and recovering z/OS data more quickly and easily. It is designed to
help reduce costs by eliminating the need to over-invest in storage
capacity for future growth. Connecting data centers to dynamic
storage clouds gives enterprises fast and flexible access to
capacity when needed.
“Our alliance with CA Technologies is an important part of our
cloud partner ecosystem and expands the capabilities of Azure for
large organizations,” said Steve Guggenheimer, corporate vice
president, Microsoft Corp. “By linking on-premises servers with the
cloud, enterprises can respond more quickly to business demands,
realizing the cost-saving benefits of the cloud.”
Microsoft will present the session “Microsoft Azure in the
Enterprise” on Tuesday, Nov. 11, at 2:45 p.m. PT in the Partner
Innovation Theater at CA World ‘14. In addition, CA and Microsoft
will co-present a session “Driving Down Costs of System z Storage”
on Tuesday, Nov. 11, at 2:00 p.m. PT in the Mainframe Theater.
