ISLANDIA, N.Y.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–CA, Inc. (NASDAQ: CA) today announced that CA Advanced Systems Management (CA ASM) is VMware Readyâ„¢ Optimized. Enterprise and cloud computing customers can now use CA ASM?a centrally managed, platform-neutral solution?to discover, monitor, track, and optimize physical and virtual system resources in VMware Virtual Datacenter Operating System (VDC-OS) environments.

“CA ASM’s qualification as VMware Ready Optimized is the next step in our ongoing effort with VMware to enable organizations to effectively deploy, optimize and manage physical and virtual environments,” said Roger Pilc, corporate senior vice president and general manager of CA’s Infrastructure Management and Data Center Automation business unit. “Integrating with and complementing the VMware vCenterTM management product portfolio helps customers to reduce costs, mitigate risks, and improve efficiency, service quality and agility.”

Achieving VMware Ready Optimized status means that VMware has validated CA ASM as being architected, tuned or integrated to optimize VMware functionality for mutual customers. As part of the process, CA ASM passed a series of automated and manual compatibility tests.

Anything we can do to aid or improve the monitoring of the virtual server estate has to be a good thing, I wonder if we can use NSM combined with metrics to carry out automated tasks or alerting when an ESX server or virtual machine gets busy? I’ll need to check it out.
