Software AG today announced the general availability of
Software AG Cloud Ready, the latest solution in the company’s cloud
strategy. Software AG unveiled its strategy earlier in the year,
embracing the vision of ‘extreme collaboration’ to help knock down
the traditional barriers to collaboration between business and IT.
Software AG Cloud Ready delivers on that strategy with a solution
designed to provide modeling, process management, Service-Oriented
Architecture and cloud integration offerings, improving processes
faster and at a lower cost.
“Today, we introduce a new way of delivering our software that
meets customers’ needs for flexible deployment by leveraging cloud
computing as a utility,” said Dr. Wolfram Jost, Chief Technology
Officer and member of the Executive Board, Software AG.
Software AG Cloud Ready offers deployment flexibility with
hybrid support for public cloud, private cloud and on-premise
models. With the use of certified platforms such as Amazon EC2 and
VMware for both ARIS and webMethods products, webMethods users can
run their development, test, and production environments in the
cloud, reducing the time to market and allowing for dynamic
provisioning. ARIS users benefit from broad collaboration during
the design, simulation, publishing and monitoring phases of process
transformation projects.
“Software AG Cloud Ready is just the first phase of our
strategy. We have more innovative solutions on the horizon to offer
enhanced capabilities. This is just the tip of the iceberg,” added
Dr. Jost.
Future Plans
On the roadmap for Software AG’s cloud strategy are additional
collaboration features to its base cloud environment. A new
web-based collaboration platform will bridge the gap between
traditional business process automation (BPA) and business process
management (BPM) tools along with emerging social technologies.
These new capabilities will allow virtual teams to work together
regardless of their locations or interaction paradigms. Supporting
both on-premise and cloud deployment models, the new collaborative
toolset will foster a team-based approach to process development
and management by allowing instant access to all relevant project
data and models. Team members will be able to easily invite others
to work with them as they gather information and investigate new
ways to bring innovation into their projects.
Additionally, core Software AG technologies serve as an
information backbone for many of the world’s largest and most
complex companies. Given this, Software AG is working on a new
communications solution that will enable companies to liberate the
business-relevant data that flows through their systems and make it
available in real-time to users. For the first time, business users
will be able to easily tap into their existing system and personal
activity streams and collaborate on them. Building on its current
event-enabled technologies and leveraging its newly-acquired mobile
and big-data technologies, the new platform will allow users to
instantly be notified of business events as they happen and
understand the context in which they happened.
