CA and VCE, the Virtual Computing Environment Company started by Cisco and EMC with money from VMware and Intel, have cut a global strategic alliance to deliver integrated private cloud solutions based on VCE's Vblock Infrastructure Platforms.
They said they'll focus initially on Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) deployment and management, and migration of Tier 1, integral enterprise applications to the Vblock platform.
The pair intends to certify a broad portfolio of CA's service management, service assurance, service automation, virtualization management, capacity management, and security solutions for Vblock platforms.
CA-ready Vblock platforms are supposed to include orchestration connectors for its CA Service Catalog, CA Process Automation and CA Spectrum Service Assurance and give customers ready-to-use integrated solutions to make it easier to provision, orchestrate, manage and secure application workloads and services on a Vblock architecture.
The planned application migration solution will be based on CA Capacity Management capabilities from its Hyperformix acquisition.
The pair expects to be ready in late June.
