FullArmor automates Windows data centre

FullArmor has released FullArmor Workflow Studio (WFS), which automates complex, time-consuming Windows data centre provisioning and administration tasks with workflow-enabled scripts, according to Business Wire.

Without writing any code, WFS enables IT departments to mix-and-match Windows PowerShell scripts with workflow technology, to manage Windows applications, virtual machines, Active Directory, Group Policy, and more.

"Extensible command line interfaces and technology for defining, executing, and managing workflows are powerful tools for automating data centre tasks, but they require significant knowledge and manual effort to use," said David Williams, research VP at Gartner.

Advent Software has announced continued momentum in the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region and, in support of the company's growing business there, has recruited a significant number of new employees to service and support its growing EMEA business, says CNN.

The new employees will join offices in the UK, Sweden, Switzerland and Norway. The appointments follow Advent's recent spate of new business wins in the private wealth management and the hedge fund sectors.

Advent has won several major contracts in Europe, supplying its suite for the automation of key business processes.
