HP Unveils Comprehensive Software Portfolio that Aligns Business and IT to Drive Business Outcomes

HP today announced a significantly broadened software portfolio that leverages the power of HP’s management software with recently acquired Mercury assets to help customers align business and IT, manage IT services and automate end-to-end change. At HP Software Universe, the company’s annual software customer event, HP detailed its approach to transforming the way chief information officers (CIOs) can optimize the business outcomes of IT investments.

Built around three “lifecycles” – change and configuration, IT service, and performance and availability – the company’s expanded portfolio helps customers integrate key IT functions across strategy, applications and operations. Using the lifecycle approach, customers can deliver better business outcomes by making the right spending decisions, delivering applications and services on time with the right quality and performance, and meeting business service-level agreements.

To enable IT organizations to easily implement this approach, HP launched nine software centers, which are suites of integrated software, services and best practices, as well as additional new and enhanced software offerings. HP leads the industry in business technology optimization, a category of software and services that addresses the key challenges chief information officers face every day – cutting IT costs, speeding delivery of new services and aligning IT for business value – all to enable profitable growth. HP’s software portfolio integrates Mercury’s leading application management and delivery and IT governance capabilities with HP’s extensive management solutions to help CIOs drive business technology optimization.
