Virtualization Product Suite Runs on All Platforms, Including
Microsoft and VMware
BANGALORE, India & BOSTON--BUSINESS WIRE)--VMLogix, a global provider of virtual infrastructure management
technology to streamline the software development lifecycle, today
announced the launch of VMLogix LabManager, addressing an important
gap in the marketplace, providing the only solution that works
seamlessly across diverse virtualization platforms and physical
machine environments, giving the user full process control at all
levels within the test environment.
Software developers, testers and quality assurance (QA)
professionals are required to deliver feature-rich, high-quality
products with limited manpower, small budgets and short timelines.
Traditionally, software development processes for setup and management
of complex test environments have largely been manual, slow,
inefficient and error prone.
VMLogix LabManager provides users with an innovative software
lifecycle management solution that fully leverages emerging
virtualization platforms, including Microsoft and VMware, and provides
complete support for physical machines. With VMLogix LabManager,
developers, testers and IT operations staff can ensure rapid, highly
repeatable, resource-optimized deployments of complex, multi-machine
software test environments. As a result, developers shave months off
their cycle times, reduce infrastructure costs, seamlessly share
resources across all boundaries and dramatically increase the quality
of final delivered software.
"Virtualization in the software development lifecycle uniquely
provides the ability to promote global collaboration across
departments, divisions and companies," said Andi Mann, senior analyst
at Enterprise Management Associates. "The technology makes it possible
for users to exchange development environments with each other -
regardless of time, location or project status. This solves costly
developer pain points and presents significant competitive advantages
through speedier development and time to market."
VMLogix LabManager can be downloaded and deployed in less than 30
minutes on all current Microsoft Windows releases and on most Linux
distributions. It also integrates seamlessly with existing
development, build and quality processes and tools. VMLogix LabManager
is unique in its support for physical machines, dynamic operating
system (OS) software stack configuration, automated test script
execution and test log data capture.
"VMLogix LabManager is the standard framework used by our forty
plus software development teams distributed across the United States,
China and India for validation of all software delivered by Trilogy,"
said Patrick Nichols, director of delivery at Trilogy Inc., a leading
provider of technology-powered business services to Global 1000
companies. "With LabManager, we have achieved ten times improvement in
the administrative overhead required to support our engineering staff
and have shrunk our product release cycle times by more than thirty
percent. Support for both virtual and physical machine platforms was a
core requirement in our environment, and LabManager is the only
solution available that fulfilled this need."
"VMLogix LabManager is a perfect solution for testing and QA
environments at Global 2000 enterprises, IT-enabled service providers
and ISVs seeking to leverage new virtualization platforms from
Microsoft and VMware," said Ravi Gururaj, CEO and founder of VMLogix.
"VMLogix LabManager reduces costs, improves software quality and
accelerates application release times. With this launch, developers
now have a user-friendly, efficient framework, which helps them
virtualize and simplify the software development lifecycle processes."
