TORONTO -- Opalis Software, Inc., the leading provider of Run Book Automation (RBA)
software that orchestrates, integrates, and automates IT operational
processes, today announced it has joined Opsware’s
Technology Alliance Partner (TAP) program. The partnership supports
joint sales and marketing activities and will provide customers access
to a broad range of data center automation capabilities; enabling more
rapidly achieved operational efficiencies and reduced labor costs across
the IT infrastructure.
"The powerful combination of Opalis and
Opsware enables customers to automate data center processes, including
change management processes that require orchestration of multiple
management systems, infrastructure elements, and departments,"
said Michael Tindal, vice president of marketing for Opalis. "As
a result, Opalis provides Opsware customers with additional value,
faster ROI, and even greater efficiencies as they manage their data
centers."
With the cost and complexity of today's IT
infrastructure spiraling out of control, enterprises are turning to IT
automation to increase productivity, ensure policy compliance, remediate
security threats, and reduce labor expenses. The Opsware TAP program
supports the increasing demand for this technology by providing an
effective way to address customer needs for server, network, and
application automation.
Opalis RBA software integrates the people, process, and technology
required to orchestrate and automate IT best practices, improving
service delivery, service levels, and reducing operational costs. Opalis
orchestrates change and configuration processes by integrating Opsware
with third-party management tools such as BMC Remedy, HP ServiceCenter,
Microsoft SMS, Virtual Server, and VMware products. The ability to
automate change processes, which span multiple applications,
departments, and data, improves response time, lowers support costs, and
ensures compliance to corporate IT operational policies.
"By combining Opsware's
IT Automation software with Opalis Integration Server, customers will
benefit from a broader spectrum of critical IT automation capabilities,"
said John O'Farrell, executive vice president
of business development at Opsware Inc. "The
