| Abstract: |
Start-ups and smaller vendors have been quick to deliver Web Service based products. This is most evident with Web Services Management (WSM), where it's almost a regular monthly event for a WSM vendor to announce their new product offerings. Whilst this market might be very attractive to new entrants, we have regularly commented that some of the WSM functionality rightly belongs in the platform, and that capabilities provided by IBM, Microsoft, BEA, and others would eventually threaten this market. But what about the traditional Systems Management vendors? WSM is a natural market for them too. In this report we look at developments from CA that are now supporting WSM in their widely used Unicenter product range.

| Backgrounder: |
System Management (SM) products such as CA Unicentre fulfil a critical role in monitoring the status and behavior of the systems infrastructure of databases, networks and application servers and alerting operations staff to incindents or helping predict potential problems. Whilst these same components are required to manage service implementations, Web Services must be considered a new asset type that demand similar management attention in their own right. Web Services create new challenges, but also offer new management opportunities. |
