mValent Extends Its Market-Leading Integrity Platform for Managing Application Configuration and Change to Microsoft® Windows® Server-Based Application Infrastructures-

Burlington, MA - June 18, 2007 - mValent, Inc. (http://www.mvalent.com), a leading provider of automated IT configuration management solutions for managing application infrastructure, today announced the availability of mValent Integrity^TM for Microsoft Servers. Designed for IT teams who implement, support and maintain the application infrastructure on Windows Servers® for their company's mission-critical, distributed business applications, mValent Integrity for Microsoft Servers enables these teams to optimize configuration, change and release management processes for application infrastructure throughout the application lifecycle - from development, testing and through production.

"With this release, we've extended the power of our market-leading application configuration and change management platform to embrace the Windows world," said Swapnil Shah, Chief Strategy Officer with mValent. "Now, IT teams have a single console to manage Microsoft-based environments as well as Linux and Unix based Java application infrastructure, and can leverage mValent Integrity's rich configuration and change management tools to reap the same benefits of improved application uptime and staff productivity, reduced IT fire drills and automated IT audit and compliance reporting."

mValent Integrity for Microsoft Servers enables IT infrastructure and application support teams to manage the many moving parts associated with application infrastructure - including Web servers, application servers, databases and middleware - by capturing deep insight into configuration settings for IT assets, monitoring them for both authorized or rogue changes and provisioning changes to supported infrastructure assets. mValent Integrity leverages Microsoft's Windows Management Instrumentation (WMI) to collect, distribute and execute configuration data from Windows application infrastructure assets in an entirely agentless fashion. Core capabilities included in this Microsoft-centric release include:

Support for the Most Popular Microsoft Servers - mValent Integrity for Microsoft Servers includes out of the box support for Microsoft Windows Server, Internet Information Services (IIS), SharePoint® Server and SQL Server^TM.
Configuration Management - mValent Integrity for Microsoft Servers delivers a dynamic, model-driven approach to application configuration management that includes in-depth inventory of all configuration settings as well as tools to simplify deployment and enforcement of configuration standards throughout the application lifecycle.
Change Management - mValent Integrity's comprehensive Infrastructure Change Dashboard delivers in-depth insight into meaningful infrastructure changes via a simplified graphical interface that enables users to drill-down into configuration changes and track, sort, analyze and report on those changes. Additionally, the software provides powerful version control for configuration settings and a dynamic Compare capability that greatly accelerates the troubleshooting process via thorough analysis of how fine-grained configuration settings have diverged from accepted standards. Users can also run scheduled comparisons and receive alerts highlighting configuration drift.
Release Management - mValent Integrity for Microsoft Servers enables IT teams to build new application environments efficiently, package and deploy configuration changes completely and validate that changes are made correctly to supported assets.
IT Audit & Reporting - mValent Integrity for Microsoft Servers automates auditing and reporting on application infrastructure changes, enabling IT teams to ensure that infrastructure changes are introduced and tracked in accordance with regulatory and operational requirements.
