BMC software has released BMC Control-M Workload Change Manager, a collaboration console that supports the growing trend towards DevOps. According to the company, “Most enterprises today suffer from a major bottleneck that limits their ability to change, as application developers and IT operations staff struggle to stay synchronized on frequent software changes across the business.” Control-M Workload Change Manager “provides developers with a simple drag-and-drop interface that makes it easy to define jobs and create or change workflows, eliminating manual and unstructured request exchanges,” which streamlines the collaboration process.
Several other companies, such as Abreon, Aldon, Axios Systems, CA, IBM, ITG and Knoa Software, offering competing software, which could make it difficult for the new product to succeed.
