CA`s security, job management solutions receive PeopleSoft 8 certification

Johannesburg, 05 Nov 2003

Computer Associates International, Inc (CA) today announced that its user provisioning solution, eTrust Admin Feed Option for PeopleSoft (eTrust Admin), and its job management solution, Unicenter AutoSys Job Management Adapter for PeopleSoft (Unicenter AutoSys Job Management), have been certified by PeopleSoft, Inc for PeopleSoft Enterprise.

The solutions help ensure the fast, reliable execution of critical business processes and enhance the operational efficiency with which IT organisations can manage enterprise PeopleSoft environments.

eTrust Admin provides role- and policy-based user provisioning across enterprise systems and applications, helping reduce administrative costs and further enhancing security. Organisations can automatically create, modify and delete user accounts across heterogeneous computing resources triggered by a certified user and role data feed from PeopleSoft Enterprise.

A member of the eTrust family of identity management solutions, eTrust Admin Feed Option for PeopleSoft has been certified for compatibility with PeopleTools 8.18, a component of PeopleSoft Enterprise.

Unicenter AutoSys Job Management centralises job scheduling across enterprise applications, regardless of their underlying platform, and provides robust fault tolerance for optimum reliability. It also enables dependencies between PeopleSoft and non-PeopleSoft jobs. Unicenter AutoSys Job Management Adapter for PeopleSoft has been certified for compatibility with PeopleTools 8.41.12.

"Lowering total cost of ownership is top-of-mind with all customers today," said Joel Heinke, director, product management, PeopleSoft Tools and Technology. "Customers can benefit from CA`s PeopleSoft certified management solutions to derive optimum value from their PeopleSoft applications."

CA solutions are also widely used by PeopleSoft customers to efficiently monitor and maintain the health of the IT infrastructure that supports their PeopleSoft environments - including networks, servers and storage.

"To maximise the ROI for complex systems such as PeopleSoft 8, it is essential to reduce associated IT workloads and eliminate unscheduled downtime," said Don LeClair, vice-president in the Office of the CTO at CA. "CA`s industry-leading management solutions fulfil these objectives, while providing customers with the ability to extend the functionality of their enterprise applications."

Other CA solutions that have already received PeopleSoft certification include eTrust Access Control, which has been certified for compatibility with PeopleTools 8.16, and Unicenter Management for WebLogic, which has been certified for compatibility with PeopleTools 8.12.

eTrust Access Control proactively protects enterprise systems against external and internal attacks and enables the centralised management of access control policies across heterogeneous platforms. Unicenter Management for WebLogic ensures the health, availability and performance of the underlying J2EE application platform, applications and Web transactions both synthetically and in real-time.
