BMC plans to support Cisco Network Services Manager across its cloud management product line, including BMC Network Automation and BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management.
BMC supports Cisco Network Services Manager across its cloud management product lines and the network management offering will provide simplicity and faster time to value for BMC and Cisco’s joint customers as well as extend support for heterogeneity in cloud environments.
With the integration with Cisco Network Services Manager, BMC will further extend customers’ ability to create different levels of services capability, or "service tiers", to meet application and deployment requirements.
Cisco and BMC’s customers are building the next generation of hybrid and public clouds through innovative networking enhancements and management offering, said BMC.
BMC Enterprise Service Management president Paul Avenant said Cisco is a leader in networking and BMC is the leader in cloud management offerings.
"Together we are creating clouds that deliver real value to our global customers," said Avenant.
Cisco global service provider senior vice-president Nick Adamo said the introduction of the Cisco Network Services Manager to the market will not only simplify network provisioning, but will also strengthen the ability of partners such as BMC to utilise and deploy the latest Cisco cloud innovations more quickly to our global customer base.
"Cisco’s strategic alliance with BMC brings our customers powerful validated and pre-tested cloud solutions," said Adamo.
