CA Technologies Addresses Critical DevOps Challenges to Help IT Accelerate Innovation 2013-04-23T02:37:00Z ca-technologies-addresses-critical-devops-challenges-to-help-it-accelerate-innovation LAS VEGAS, April 22, 2013 -- CA WORLD -- CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today announced it is rapidly expanding its market-leading CA LISA® solutions to address the most critical challenges in operationalizing DevOps methodologies, helping customers improve application development and delivery to accelerate innovation. As part of this initiative, the company announced it acquired Nolio, bringing continuous delivery capabilities to CA Technologies service virtualization business. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. “Winning in today’s world of rapid agile development and complex hybrid infrastructures requires IT organizations to have automated application delivery processes and tools to deliver innovation to customers with perfection, and faster than the competition,” said Shridhar Mittal, general manager, Application Delivery, CA Technologies. “Building on our expertise in Service Virtualization—through both organic development and a targeted acquisition—we are driving efficiencies, cost savings and faster release cycles, and equally important, we are helping our customers achieve a truly optimized approach to DevOps.” With the combined application delivery solution, customers can simplify and streamline application releases, develop and test applications rapidly, move applications into production automatically with higher quality, and better ensure continuous application delivery across the software development lifecycle for improved business and operational agility. “We are driven to constantly innovate and deliver new applications to market, and that has aligned us closely with the DevOps direction of the CA LISA product suite,” said Laura Miller, senior vice president, Financial Services Application Development, First Data Corporation. “When we virtualize away constraints and automate manual tasks in the software lifecycle, collaboration between Development, QA and Operations teams happens at a new level. We can reliably expect continuous improvement in time-to-market as well as better reliability of the new services our customers demand.” Nolio Acquisition Nolio is a recognized leader in continuous application delivery with a strong and growing international base of large enterprise and service provider customers. Nolio’s solutions help customers: • Improve business and operational agility by dramatically cutting release times; • Simplify, standardize and execute application releases with better precision; • Automate application rollbacks for faster recovery and service continuity; and • Enable fast, agile and scalable release automation for cloud and traditional applications. According to a recent 451 Research report*, “Nolio is growing both its service-provider and enterprise customers, which bodes well for its future and for the release-automation and devops market. Nolio’s growth also reinforces the enterprise evolution of devops – the confluence of application development and deployment via IT operations – and how more enterprise and service-provider customers are implementing automation, continuous deployment and devops more broadly after already having successfully achieved divisional, test and proof-of-concept deployments.” CA LISA Application Delivery Suite At CA World 2013, CA Technologies unveiled its expanded CA LISA Application Delivery suite, which addresses the most critical DevOps challenges and helps a high velocity application delivery organization to deliver faster to market, with superior quality and reduced costs. The suite includes: CA LISA Service Virtualization: Reduces or eliminates constraints—or roadblocks—such as limited lab and system availability, and incomplete software and test data that prevent on-time application delivery—by modeling dependent systems and services. The latest version now offers mainframe capabilities, international support, and additional protocols and data capabilities. This solution helps customers: • Improve quality by shifting error identification earlier in the development cycle; • Speed time-to-market for updated or new services; • Lower infrastructure and pay-per-use service costs; • Reduce demand and contention for physical hardware and labs; and • Enable parallel development in a 24/7 available virtual environment.

CA Technologies to Acquire Privately-held Layer 7 Technologies 2013-04-22T23:32:00Z ca-technologies-to-acquire-privately-held-layer-7-technologies LAS VEGAS and VANCOUVER, British Columbia, April 23, 2013 – CA WORLD – CA Technologies (NASDAQ:CA) today announced it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire Layer 7 Technologies, a leading provider of Application Programming Interface (API) management and security. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. The acquisition of Layer 7 will enable CA Technologies to manage and secure the API marketplace with leading technology that complements its current Identity and Access Management suite, including CA SiteMinder®, and its technologies focused on DevOps including the CA LISA® suite. The combination of CA Technologies and Layer 7 solutions will help organizations to better manage and secure APIs and deliver more confidently and quickly the cloud, mobile and composite applications that run today’s business services. “The addition of Layer 7 and the synergy across our technologies will improve how we securely support organizations in their cloud, mobile and ‘Internet of things’ initiatives,” said Mike Denning, Security general manager, CA Technologies. “We use APIs every day, whether accessing flight data from our mobile device, using Google Maps from a hotel website or making payments online. There are billions of API calls a day and that number is going to increase with the proliferation of smart devices, ranging from vehicles, meters, TVs and other devices, as they start interacting over APIs. Without API security and management, thousands of business services are vulnerable to disruption.” Benefitting numerous key stakeholders in an organization – from developers and IT architects who need to streamline and securely accelerate the development of new business services, to the line of business and the C-suite who demand business services deliver a superior customer experience to help ensure customer retention and growth – the acquisition will enable organizations to: * Securely enable strategic cloud, mobile and “Internet of Things” initiatives through API security and management; * Accelerate service delivery and increase profitability by externalizing and monetizing existing application assets that are securely offered via APIs; * Expand the network of API developers by offering a convenient API development platform that provides all the tools necessary to discover, publish and test APIs; * Govern API activity in order to enforce SLAs, improve operational performance and monetize Big Data transactions; and, * Secure the externalized API business through authentication, authorization, auditing and threat protection. “The API-driven economy has exploded, driven by today’s cloud, mobile and complex composite applications for business services,” said Paul Rochester, CEO, Layer 7. “With more than 8,000 public APIs available at the end of 2012, there is a vast library of proprietary components and data exposed to the external world that need to be managed and secured from unauthorized access. API applications and services are no longer a trend, they are mainstream. The combination of CA Technologies and Layer 7 is the best option for enterprises to successfully and securely leverage all the business benefits APIs can offer.” Layer 7’s API management and security capabilities are delivered both on-premise and from the cloud. The company, founded in 2002, has offices in the US, Canada and Europe. About Layer 7 Technologies Layer 7 Technologies provides API building blocks for the new open enterprise. Nearly 300 leading enterprises, including some of the world's largest organizations, rely on Layer 7's award-winning products to open APIs to partners, developers, mobile apps and cloud services in a secure and scalable way. The company has been recognized by leading analysts as a leader in API security and management space, and is the only API Management vendor to have been named to Deloitte's Fast 500 list of fastest growing companies in both 2011 and 2012.

CA Technologies Commits to Carbon Neutral CA World 2013 2013-04-22T01:32:00Z ca-technologies-commits-to-carbon-neutral-ca-world-2013 CA Technologies Commits to Carbon Neutral CA World 2013 CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that its largest global gathering of customers and partners, CA World 2013, will be a carbon neutral event, consistent with the company’s sustainability commitments. LAS VEGAS – April 22, 2013 – CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that its largest global gathering of customers and partners, CA World 2013, will be a carbon neutral event, consistent with the company’s sustainability commitments. The user conference is from April 21 – 24, at the Mandalay Bay Resort & Casino in Las Vegas. “Sustainability is integral to our business and we believe it’s important to lead by example,” explained Cynthia Curtis, chief sustainability officer, CA Technologies. “Ensuring CA World 2013 is a carbon neutral event demonstrates to customers, partners and employees that we are serious about our sustainability commitment. We believe that sustainability isn’t just the right thing to do -- it’s smart business.” The company will calculate the carbon emissions associated with CA World 2013 based on travel, lighting, heat and energy.

CA Technologies CEO Gregoire Calls on Technology Leaders to Embrace Disruptive Technologies to Drive Business Transformation 2013-04-22T00:45:00Z ca-technologies-ceo-gregoire-calls-on-technology-leaders-to-embrace-disruptive-technologies-to-drive-business-transformation LAS VEGAS, April 22, 2013 -- CA WORLD -- In his inaugural CA World keynote address, Mike Gregoire, chief executive officer of CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA), today challenged the 5,000 attendees to embrace disruptive technologies such as cloud, mobile, social and big data management analytics to transform business and drive competitive advantage. “Value is no longer measured by the size of the IT staff, the computing power (MIPs) under management or the square footage of your data centers," said Gregoire. "IT’s value today is all about providing the innovation, speed, insight and security the business needs to gain a competitive advantage – using resources from both inside and outside your company. This creates a huge opportunity for CIOs and other IT leaders to act as a catalyst and enable modern business models and methods – to not only transform IT, but to transform the business. The question you have to ask yourself is this: Will I drive the change, or will I be driven by it?” Boundaries of the Data Center Have Been Expanded Gregoire described an IT world where more and more systems, data and applications exist outside data centers – and outside firewalls, producing additional challenges and demands. “First, it raises the stakes for IT management and security across this vast new landscape,” he said. “They become even more important as you manage and secure your infrastructure, data, applications, and business services across your existing environment and private, public and hybrid clouds. Second, it creates both a challenge and opportunity for CIOs.” Focus on Enabling Technologies In his keynote, Gregoire also highlighted CA Technologies focus on four technology trends that will enable its customers to deliver and orchestrate IT with greater impact on business: DevOps, Mobility, SaaS (Software as a Service) and Big Data Analytics Management. DevOps: The Need for Speed Gregoire said the communication, integration and collaboration between software application developers and IT operations professionals – commonly called DevOps – is vital if companies wish to transform their business models in order to deliver services to the market faster. “The demand for applications today appears to be nearly insatiable. I ran across a reference recently that says it all -- calling this new world “The Planet of the Apps,” stated Gregoire. “The benefits of DevOps are not trivial. We believe our solutions can help you achieve as much as a 30 to 50 percent reduction in time to market … an 80 to 100 percent improvement in quality …and a 20 to 30 percent reduction in infrastructure costs.” Gregoire detailed CA Technologies market-leading position in DevOps because of the company’s service virtualization capabilities, as well as its acquisition of continuous application delivery resources. These capabilities, coupled with CA’s Cloud Management solution, enable customers to get applications in production more quickly, with higher reliability and less risk. Mobile Management: Launch of Comprehensive Solutions to Embrace the Mobile Opportunity The explosion of mobile devices is a big challenge for IT organizations, Gregoire said. While business is demanding more mobile applications to gain anytime access to corporate data, when it comes to the security of data, what users don’t know, he said, can hurt them. While discrete products to manage devices are available today, they do not help manage the content and applications being deployed. “True enterprise mobility management requires a comprehensive approach that extends beyond device management to include mobile application, content and services management,” said Gregoire. “That’s why we’re launching a comprehensive solution for enterprise mobility management here at CA World, and extending our existing solutions to support the mobile enterprise.” Software-as-a-Service: A Technology Infrastructure and Business Model Shift Gregoire said CA Technologies will invest in Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) delivery by product segment, with the ultimate goal of providing a suite of management and security functions delivered as a service. “For most people, SaaS means moving applications to the public cloud,” he said. “But I have a different point of view. To me, SaaS is more of a technology infrastructure and a business model shift. Ultimately, SaaS is a business model that enables us to provide better quality code faster, deliver continuous innovation, meet your needs more rapidly and accurately, and help you deliver better business results in a public cloud, private cloud or behind a customer’s firewall.” Data Management Analytics: More Data, More Problems Massive amounts of data are not helpful without a means to mine and analyze the information for insight and business value, he said. “The first challenge is to manage and secure all this data. The bigger the data, the bigger the challenge for management and security, and this is our sweet spot,” said Gregoire. “We see a significant opportunity to use big data to make management and security more intelligent and to increase the business value we deliver. It’s an emerging area for us, but one that’s receiving a lot of development focus.” What’s Next for CA Technologies Gregoire said the market will see more emphasis from CA Technologies on organic innovation with a goal of differentiating everything the company does to deliver even more value to customers. That means innovation on the mainframe, innovation in distributed computing, and innovation in cloud management. Additionally, he focused on the emphasis the company is putting on ensuring customer success. This includes investments in moving customers to newer versions of software and delivering “bankable” product roadmaps. “Who better than CA to redefine IT management and security in this new world of cloud, social, mobile and big data and to define new markets like DevOps?” Gregoire said. “This takes a significant commitment to innovation and we are committed to this mission.” More than 5,000 IT professionals and customers from around the world are attending CA World in Las Vegas to hear about the latest trends, learn how to best leverage CA Technologies products and solutions, and network with peers and industry thought leaders.

CA Technologies Positioned in Leaders Quadrant of Gartner Magic Quadrant for User Authentication 2013-04-15T04:53:00Z ca-technologies-positioned-in-leaders-quadrant-of-gartner-magic-quadrant-for-user-authentication CA Technologies Positioned in Leaders Quadrant of Gartner Magic Quadrant for User Authentication SYDNEY, April 15, 2013 – CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that it has again been positioned by Gartner, Inc. in the Leaders quadrant of the Magic Quadrant for User Authentication*. CA AuthMinder™ and CA RiskMinder™, the company’s on-premise strong authentication solutions, and CA CloudMinder™ Advanced Authentication, the authentication-as-a-service component of CA CloudMinder, were evaluated for this report. In the report “Gartner predicts that, by 2017, more than 50 percent of enterprises will choose cloud-based services as the delivery option for new or refreshed user authentication implementations — up from less than 10 percent today. However, it is likely that on-premises solutions will persist in the longer term, especially in more risk-averse enterprises that want to retain full control of identity administration, credentialing and verification.” “We are living in a hybrid world when it comes to IT. Very few, if any, organizations today are using ‘all cloud’ or ‘all on-premises’ solutions, especially when it comes to security,” said Mike Denning, senior vice president and general manager, Security business at CA Technologies. “Our ability to provide identity and access management, advanced authentication and data protection solutions delivered on premises or as-a-service is perfectly aligned with this hybrid reality.” “We are proud to be placed in the Leader’s Quadrant for user authentication, as well as in three other recent Gartner Magic Quadrant reports, including the Magic Quadrant for Identity and Access Governance**; the Magic Quadrant for User Administration and Provisioning***; and the Magic Quadrant for Content-Aware Data Loss Prevention****.

CA Technologies Enables IT to Deliver an Exceptional End-User Experience with Latest Release of CA Capacity Management 2013-04-11T01:21:00Z ca-technologies-enables-it-to-deliver-an-exceptional-end-user-experience-with-latest-release-of-ca-capacity-management CA Technologies Enables IT to Deliver an Exceptional End-User Experience with Latest Release of CA Capacity Management Solution Helps Optimize Application Performance Through Predictive Capacity Planning SYDNEY, April 11, 2013 – CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced a new release of CA Capacity Managementthat integrates with CA Application Performance Management (CA APM) to help enterprises and service providers ensure an exceptional end-user experience without over-provisioning IT infrastructure. By leveraging real production data to improve capacity planning models, the integrated solution enables IT to deliver a right-sized infrastructure to support business-critical application delivery. “Today’s IT organizations are tasked with managing increasingly complex infrastructures comprised of physical, virtual, cloud and mainframe systems, all of which need to be optimized to deliver business-critical applications,” said Mike Sargent, general manager, Service Assurance, CA Technologies. “The predictive reliability capabilities of CA Capacity Management and CA APM help customers maintain delivery of a superior and differentiated end-user experience by allowing them to predict how applications will perform when substantial changes in the business or IT environment, such as seasonal spikes in demand, plans for growth, mergers and acquisitions, or a hardware refresh, are projected.” CA Capacity Management helps customers run efficient and cost-effective data centers and deliver on service level agreements by reliably predicting the infrastructure needed to support business-critical systems today and into the future. When used in combination with CA APM, customers can build more accurate models and run an unlimited number of “what-if” scenarios to understand how applications will perform under different conditions. By using capacity planning models based on real application performance data, IT can find the right combination of hardware, virtualization and cloud services to meet the needs of the business while limiting the impact to the bottom line. This helps mitigate risk because IT can reliably predict that load increases – whether seasonal or otherwise – will function properly in their environment. The latest release of CA Capacity Management helps customers to more reliably predict and manage application performance by cloning existing workloads in order to create and reserve capacity for future projected workloads via hypothetical templates, while still optimizing capacity for current production loads. In addition, the solution now includes the ability to understand the impacts of workload changes and the optimal infrastructure configuration to support the application environment based on those changes. “To keep up with the increasing demand for IT services, and deliver an exceptional end-user experience while keeping within budget constraints, IT organizations must be able to proactively identify, diagnose and resolve performance problems by monitoring all transactions. IT also must be able to assess current capacity requirements while reliably predicting future growth, without having to overbuild its infrastructure and spend needlessly for hardware and cloud services that may go unused,” said Torsten Volk, senior analyst, Enterprise Management Associates. “Technologies, such as application performance management and capacity management, can help IT organizations reduce risk and keep a close eye on business-critical application performance while ensuring that capacity needs are right-sized for today’s needs and future growth.” For more information, attend the Transform Business Service Delivery with Service AssuranceandAccelerate Service Delivery with Agile Cloud and Automation Solutionsfocus areas atCA World.

CA Technologies Streamlines Identity and Access Management for the Hybrid Enterprise with Latest Rollout of CA CloudMinder 2013-02-27T04:22:00Z ca-technologies-streamlines-identity-and-access-management-for-the-hybrid-enterprise-with-latest-rollout-of-ca-cloudminder CA Technologies Streamlines Identity and Access Management for the Hybrid Enterprise with Latest Rollout of CA CloudMinder CA IAM-as-a-Service Extends On Premise and Cloud Applications Support, and Helps Organizations Strengthen Customer Relationships SYDNEY, February 27, 2013 – CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced the next rollout of its CA CloudMinderTM identity and access management (IAM) service solution. With extended out-of-the-box support for social identities and additional on-premise and cloud applications such as Microsoft Office 365TM, CA CloudMinder helps organizations strengthen customer relationships, while streamlining how they manage users and their access for greater operational and cost efficiencies. CA CloudMinder provides enterprise-grade IAM for both cloud-based or on-premise applications in a highly scalable multi-tenant IAM as-a-Service solution. The three components of CA CloudMinder can be deployed individually or together in a single, integrated IAM service: CA CloudMinder Advanced Authentication protects against unapproved and unauthorized access using multiple forms of strong authentication and risk analysis to validate a user’s identity. CA CloudMinder Identity Management provides user provisioning and de-provisioning to a broad set of on-premise applications and cloud services as well as comprehensive user management capabilities. With the ability to operate and synchronize with existing on-premise identity stores such as Active Directory or other LDAP-compliant directories, CA CloudMinder Identity Management leverages existing technologies for faster deployment. CA CloudMinder Single Sign-On (SSO) supports today’s extended and hybrid enterprise with reliable identity federation in a unified, cloud-based single sign-on solution. Leveraging CA SiteMinder® technology, CA CloudMinder Single Sign-On is scalable and controls access for millions of users from within or outside an organization. Companies have seen the benefits that IAM as-a-service can provide. “In one test, CA CloudMinder allowed a team to accomplish in just three days what had taken almost two months of building, installing, configuring and testing with an on-premise approach,” said Drew Koenig, president, CA Security Global User Community. “That company estimated it could employ CA CloudMinder for a reduced cost and get three IAM capabilities versus just one plus free up staff time. By not having to work on maintaining the on-premise infrastructure, the team can focus more on strategic identity initiatives.” Leveraging CA Technologies leading IAM technology and more than a decade of experience providing Authentication as-a-Service, CA CloudMinder provides a single source of identity and access control across the hybrid enterprise and drives cost efficiencies through speed of deployment, predictability of expense and reduced infrastructure and management needs. “Identity and access management demands are evolving as organizations employ different ways to save money and grow the business, such as incorporating cloud services, adopting bring-your-own-device policies and supporting social identities as a way to get closer to the customer,” said Mike Denning, general manager, Security business at CA Technologies. “This evolution and customer demand drove our vision for CA CloudMinder to be able to function as that single bridge that manages the identities and access for employees, partners and customers to cloud or on-premise applications no matter what device or what identity they chose to use.” New capabilities in CA CloudMinder include: Support for Social Identities: With support for OpenID, OAuth, WS-Fed and SAML, CA CloudMinder provides SSO and self-registration to vendor sites using Facebook and Google identities, helping to drive social media marketing campaigns. CA CloudMinder Advanced Authentication also adds step-up security to the typical user name and password login. Extending the support of CA CloudMinder to help drive customer engagement, satisfaction and retention increases the value of IAM to an organization beyond the traditional demands of security, compliance and operational efficiencies. Extended Support for On Premise and Cloud Applications: CA CloudMinder helps organizations save money by reducing the time it takes to deploy identity management capabilities. By adding more than 30 connectors for provisioning, including support for Office 365, mainframes and other popular enterprise applications, CA CloudMinder has increased its number of out-of-the-box configurations for improved deployment time. Support for IAM Choice: CA CloudMinder gives customers a choice in how they support their IAM needs on the operational back end, while streamlining management and administration on the front end. By connecting to the CA Technologies provisioning, federation and advanced authentication solutions already in place on-premise, CA CloudMinder preserves the investment in configuring those solutions as it unifies IAM administration into the CA CloudMinder interface. This gives customers a choice: they can use CA CloudMinder IAM as-a-service alone to manage all on-premise or cloud applications, or they can use a mix of CA CloudMinder with CA Technologies on-premise IAM solutions – all managed from a single user interface. Partner Ecosystem CA CloudMinder also presents a variety of opportunities for partners, including hosting the CA CloudMinder service operations in their own data center and / or managing the IAM administration on behalf of the customer in its tenant environment. These options enable partners to focus on their strengths, while leveraging CA Technologies IAM knowledge and experience. “Efficiently managing identities and their access across the hybrid enterprise with an eye toward the future is a complex and resource-intensive challenge for many of the organizations we work with today,” said Jeremy Britton, a director in Deloitte & Touche LLP’s security & privacy practice and its CA alliance leader. “This is especially true with the large number of external users that businesses are now bringing into their applications. By combining an IAM service that can remove the hardware and operational burden with Deloitte’s application management offering, which provides the staff and knowledge to manage IAM administration, organizations can outsource their IAM function and apply resources to other areas to drive business growth.” The latest release of CA CloudMinder is available today. Pricing starts with a base tenant set-up fee of $10,000 plus $5,000 per service. Monthly fees are based on the number and types of users (internal business users or external consumer users).

Adoption of CA Technologies Service Virtualization Solution Grows 50 Percent Worldwide 2013-02-27T00:07:00Z adoption-of-ca-technologies-service-virtualization-solution-grows-50-percent-worldwide SYDNEY, February 27, 2013 – CA Technologies (NASDAQ: CA) today announced accelerating adoption of its CA LISA® Service Virtualization software, with 24 new customers representing 50 percent growth in new product sales in the third quarter of FY13 alone. The company has achieved a series of key milestones, signing major deals with new and existing customers worldwide in North America, Latin America, EMEA, Asia and the ANZ markets. According to Dana W. Edwards, CTO, Union Bank, “We are seeing immediate benefit from CA LISA. Lifecycle optimization is a priority for us and the Service Virtualization features of CA LISA are having a positive impact. With CA LISA, we are able to realize agile, parallel development and increase the quality of the products we deliver for our customers. Finding areas for improvement earlier in the lifecycle is reducing our risk.” The widespread adoption of CA LISA is being fueled by the increased pressure on global brands to deliver applications and services faster than ever. CA LISA has been shown to accelerate software delivery timelines by as much as 25 to 50 percent, while increasing application quality and decreasing infrastructure costs. “We have been using CA LISA for just over a year and have seen considerable improvements in both the quality and speed of our software releases, particularly when those applications must interact with our complex systems,” said Mike Benson, CIO, DirecTV. “Using CA LISA has been a wonderful experience for DirecTV, providing us with much more rapid end-to-end application development and testing, which has significantly reduced delivery times. What would previously have taken a month or two, now takes as little as a day or even an hour. As a result, we are also able to quickly and effectively adapt to the changing needs of the business.” “Traditional waterfall software development and 12-18 month release cycles are rapidly becoming obsolete, as today’s consumers expect IT to deliver flawless applications and services with far greater agility," said Shridhar Mittal, general manager, Service Virtualization, CA Technologies. “IT leaders who understand the complexities of producing applications for composite environments including Cloud, SaaS, mobile and Big Data recognize this challenge. These customers increasingly turn to CA LISA to increase the velocity of their software development life cycle, from design and development, through integration, performance testing and delivery to production.” CA LISA delivers these benefits through service virtualization—capturing and simulating the behavior, data and performance characteristics of system dependencies—so that software development and testing teams do not need access to costly, highly-constrained production environments to do their jobs effectively. “To keep pace with customer and business demands, service virtualization is emerging as an innovative, valuable, and incredibly powerful solution of the modern application life cycle. voke research shows that the return on investment (ROI) of service virtualization is quick and clear. Service virtualization ROI shows double digit improvements in time to market, reduction of defects entering production, reduction of overall software cycle times, and increased test coverage. Service virtualization helps to deliver more predictable, effective, and efficient business outcomes,” said Theresa Lanowitz, founder, voke. CA Technologies has also seen a more than 150 percent increase in new membership in its ServiceVirtualization.com open community over the past six months. To further foster education in this relatively new IT area, the company also released a study on the Business Benefits of Service Virtualization and published the book “Service Virtualization: Reality is Overrated” (CA Press, 2012).
