"Automating big heterogeneous server environments is time-consuming without using well-defined models and pattern-based solutions," explains CFEngine's CEO, Thomas Ryd. "The 'Big Four' software providers try to replicate this process by acquiring their way to a better offering. However, the dozens of software purchases made by each company presents too many variations on hardware and software. This approach ultimately adds layers of complexity or worse - causes IT administrators to revert back to human intervention which inevitably increases problematic system errors that affect the entire business process."
Nova 2.0 runs without emulation or compatibility software on Linux, Unix, Macintosh and Windows platforms. The solution has a semantic Knowledge Map to provide an improved reporting style with new compliance troubleshooting and business value reports. Nova 2.0 also offers a single consistent cross-platform approach to software deployment and management.
Nova 2.0 elegantly keeps business services running with transparent solutions that sit between IT service operations and IT service management, reducing the amount of physical work performed by IT administrators and virtually eliminating human-based configuration management errors. Nova 2.0 eases the network management burden of IT directors with automatic enforcement of policies, consistent operational views and cohesive visibility.
