Insights for Better Experiences, Intelligent
Automation for DevOps and “Shift-Left” with Security Highlight
Innovations from CA for the Modern Software Factory
At its second annual Built to Change Summit, CA Technologies
(NASDAQ:CA) showcased new and updated innovations across the
portfolio that fuel every company’s evolution to a Modern Software
Factory. These solutions integrate powerful advanced analytics and
data science with machine-learning, artificial intelligence and
automation into the tools and technologies that support the entire
software development lifecycle (SDLC).
Across various industries, the use of AI and advanced analytics
within the enterprise is certainly top-of-mind for companies
looking to optimize their business with the use of this technology.
According to a recent Gartner report, “AI and machine learning
strategy development/ investment is already in the top five CIO
priorities.”1 Yet, while the benefits of AI at a high level are
readily accepted and new use cases continue to emerge, hurdles to
fully realizing the business benefits of AI still exist. In fact,
Gartner states, “CIOs face two key challenges in exploring and
adopting AI: the availability of skilled and experienced staff, and
the lack of IT and business understanding of AI's potential,”2
which highlights for us the need for organizations to consider
aspects beyond technology when embarking on a digital
transformation journey.
Insights for Better Experiences
Leveraging the vast amounts of data generated to glean
actionable insights that drive business impact is an ongoing
challenge. Adding to the complexity of the issue is being able to
use the data in modern architectures that use APIs and
microservices for new and improved services and offerings. To
address this challenge, CA is giving customers the ability to
derive and apply deep insights for machine learning and artificial
intelligence that helps with more accurate planning, as well as
predictive modeling, and real-time remediation to operational
issue.
“As a leading management consulting and technology services firm
that focuses on digital innovation, we understand the critical role
that data plays in business transformation,” said Karl Kleinert,
vice president of Sales at IntelliNet. “The ability to leverage
data taken from various platforms and correlate that data to derive
insights that have an impact on our company’s bottom line is an
extremely powerful thing.”
New ways CA is helping companies apply key insights include:
- CA Digital Operational Intelligence, a
machine learning–driven solution that provides comprehensive
insights by automatically ingesting cross-domain data from IT
operations tools. Powered by CA Jarvis, the solution uses
algorithmic intelligence to quickly identify the problem root
cause, measure and improve business service levels, improve cost
and resources utilization, and proactively detect and remedy
potential issues.
- CA Project & Portfolio Management
(CA PPM) 15.4 introduces a strategic planning capability with a
roadmapping module for top-down visual planning and collaboration.
It gives users the ability to easily view, pivot and sort
investment information across the organization and delivers
actionable business intelligence with extensive modeling and
forecasting capabilities.
Intelligent Automation for DevOps
The latest update to the CA Automic One Automation Platform
empowers the Ops of DevOps through new lifecycle management of
automation artifacts, intelligent critical-path management, and
support for PostgreSQL. It also supports shift-left automation
capabilities for Developers with new automation-as-code
functionality, and connects automation silos with new integrations
for CA Workload Automation, CA Continuous Delivery Director, and CA
Jarvis to deliver powerful analytics capabilities.
“The CA Automic One Automation engine allows TASC to better
orchestrate our development toolchain and plug in the right tools
as we need them,” says John Gildenzoph, DevOps engineer at TASC.
“Whether we need to deploy software or new instances, our
automation engine gives us the flexibility to deliver new services
at scale. With the CA Automation platform, we are now a more nimble
and agile organization and instead of being impeded by arduous
processes, we can focus on what is important - driving business
value for the company.”
Secure Development from the Start
The latest addition to the CA Security portfolio, CA Veracode
SourceClear is a SaaS-based software composition analysis tool
which relies on a unique vulnerability database that goes beyond
the National Vulnerability Database (NVD) and vulnerable methods
technology to increase the actionability of static composition
analysis (SCA) results. Unique to CA, the combination of CA
Veracode and CA Veracode SourceClear offerings enable organizations
to use open source libraries to accelerate software development
without adding unmanaged risk to support the DevSecOps
movement.
“Being able to integrate application scanning in our DevOps
practices means delivering new value-added services to customers
quickly, with the reassurance of security and integrity in all apps
and services,” said Scot Bellamy, manager and senior security
architect at Cardinal Health. “We’re shifting left and cutting down
cycle times by integrating security into our development
practices.”
“We’re seeing the benefits of advanced analytics,
machine-learning and artificial intelligence today and for the
future,” said Ayman Sayed, president and chief product officer at
CA Technologies. “CA is helping every modern software factory by
integrating and incorporating these capabilities with big data,
automation and security to help customers realize even greater
value from their technology investments.”
In addition to these new and updated solutions and capabilities,
CA also today announced new innovations for mainframe
environments.
