Real Benefits, Now and into the Future
Your business needs the best available solutions to maximize business continuity and IT investment value while minimizing risk.

VMware Virtual Infrastructure coupled with CA Recovery Management addresses these challenges simply and cost effectively. Going beyond disaster recovery and high availability, VMware Virtual Infrastructure and CA Recovery Management together provide a powerful, multi-layered business continuity solution that covers a wide range of contingencies.

VMware Virtual Infrastructure and CA Recovery Management reduce business risk by allowing protection of more systems than previously possible and by preventing lapses in protection as new systems are implemented. By making DR possible when it would otherwise not be feasible, this solution improves operational efficiency by letting you assign continuity to the stand-by site that works best for the business, rather than the site that technology dictates. This approach enables you to gain flexible control over your IT infrastructure while dramatically reducing the total cost of ownership for contingency planning.

Together, VMware and CA significantly improve management of your physical and virtual servers. The combined VMware-CA solutions ease deployment, increase availability of applications and servers and make them more resistant to threats, potential disasters and other challenges. In addition, VMware and CA solutions help to enable, support and accelerate a variety of key IT initiatives, from data center and server consolidation to application roll-outs and upgrades. VMware and CA help your business reduce costs, operational risks and staffing and training requirements.
