ATOS :Atos accelerates application lifecycle for the hybrid cloud
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Alien4cloud(TM) - a major step towards digital transformation
Paris, 15 June 2016 - Through its technology brand Bull, Atos launches
alien4cloud(TM) - a software suite to accelerate its customers' digital
transformation. Alien4cloud fully automates the application lifecycle, from
development to deployment and production both on premise and for all types of
cloud. Alien4cloud allows customers to leverage the best infrastructure during
all steps of the application lifecycle on an on-demand basis by abstracting the
application from the infrastructure. Alien4cloud allows IT operations to be
responsive to any business application team requirement with more IT agility and
effectiveness.
With the transition to digital, companies need to continuously modernize their
IT, develop innovation and rapidly shift to cloud-based models. Complete agility
in any phase of the application lifecycle is paramount - from development to
deployment and production in a mix of private, public and hybrid cloud
environments. According to analysts 2 out of 3 enterprises will have over 50%
applications in the cloud within three years.
Deployment in a few minutes instead of a few days
Alien4cloud, developed by Bull, is a unique, open and user-friendly software
suite. Using DevOps practices, it provides development teams with a self-service
portal to improve collaboration, to shorten the entire application lifecycle,
and to optimize the ROI.
"Our ambition is to deploy a DevOps platform allowing the design and management
of the entire application stack from end-to-end while enabling the full
automation of the complete application lifecycle. In addition, we wanted full
openness that can only be guaranteed by a TOSCA-compliant platform. We have
decided to leverage alien4cloud which encompasses these two imperatives. We have
chosen a partner with the expertise and resources to help us accelerate the time
to market of our new applications and to increase our competitiveness", states
Vincent Hornain, Head of Cloud/Automation Program for Retail Banking at Société
Générale.
Alien4cloud offers key advantages:
* Deployment in a few minutes instead of a few days without the need for
expert support
* DevOps offers easy collaboration between development and deployment teams
throughout the application lifecycle
* Flexibility to shift anytime to the best deployment location - public,
private or hybrid without additional investment
* Migration from existing applications or the deployment of new application
are handled in a non-disruptive way
* Leverages TOSCA - Topology and Orchestration Specification for Cloud
Applications.
* Enterprise market place enablement through a continuous application
provisioning
"This announcement is another step towards our ambition of supporting clients
in their digital transformation. Alien4cloud helps IT departments to rationalize
their IT assets and fosters competitiveness with a shorter application lifecycle
in line with the evolving business needs. With alien4cloud, self-service
business lines will no longer need to use uncontrolled Shadow IT", states Jérôme
Sandrini, Vice President, Head of Big Data Software & Services at Atos.
