Veritas, BEA deliver enterprise standard utility computing
Veritas Software have teamed up with BEA systems to deliver the first ever utility computing platform for enterprise applications.
The aim is to help increase the availability of applications, increase their performance and reduce the operational costs of them to for a wider range of companies.
The alliance intends to help the customer establish greater IT adaptability, flexibility and have access to a simplier way of managing the applications.
The combined solutions will include versions of Veritas Indepth for J2EE application performance management software, Veritas Cluster Server high availability solution and Veritas OpForce server provisioning software integrated with BEA Weblogic and Tuxedo platforms.
The new offerings are designed to work with all major operating systems, hardware and enterprise applications.
William P. Hurley, senior analyst at Enterprise Application Group said. "Until now, deploying integrated applications platform built on a utility computing infrastructure required a single vendor, hardware and software lock-in. This alliance will provide a compelling alternative for customers by allowing existing heterogeneous hardware and software investments to form the foundation of a fully integrated utility computing infrastructure."
Mark Bregman, executive vice president of product operations, Veritas software, added. "Veritas and BEA are working together to help customers ensure applications are available whenever users need them, that they process critical information quickly and can rapidly scale to meet changing business demands. Bringing together BEA and Veritas, two of the world's leading independent software companies, is a major milestone for the delivery of open, heterogeneous utility computing solutions as the foundation for business applications."
This platform shows that hardware and software technology heterogeneity do not have to get in the way of establishing a utility computing infrastructure. It allows hardware and software solutions to be integrated across storage systems to application infrastructures.
