CA helps companies manage IT to become more productive and better compete, innovate, and grow their businesses. We develop and deliver software that enables organizations to achieve lean IT.

Management plays a large and critical role in enabling the true benefits of cloud. The business-driven, lean IT approach to managing cloud computing ensures that the use of cloud resources are managed with a defined goal of achieving cost savings, increasing business capabilities, or both.

Business-driven cloud management allows IT to meet the needs of the business through effective and efficient management of cloud resources, in conjunction with and taking into account an organization’s existing computing capabilities. Managing the cloud as a “mediation layer”, provides the ability to understand what resources are available both on and off premises, and then based on pre-determined business policies automate the dynamic reconfiguration of the internal and external computing infrastructure to provide an optimum level of service.

Innovative management solutions from CA provide a business driven management approach and add comprehensive support for Amazon EC2 with real-time automation, provisioning, application performance, service, and database management. CA and AWS are working together to help enterprises take advantage of Amazon EC2 as a simple extension of their enterprise IT infrastructure through a broad array of CA’s enterprise management solutions.
