With a direction towards the hot virtualization market, CA worldwide channel chief Bill Lipsin told the more than 600 channel partners attending the CA World conference the company wants to instill a belief in the channel that CA values them.
Virtualization is a priority for CA's worldwide channel team, Lipsin said. He cited IDC figures that peg the virtualization market at $30 billion by the year 2010. The majority of that opportunity for CA will be through partners, he added.
CA has worked with VMware and Microsoft to integrate CA products from XOSoft and ArcServe to mange VMware Hypervisors and Microsoft's Hyper-V. "This comprehensive strategy to integrate a number of CA technologies allows you to manage virtual and physical environments," Lipsin said.
Steve Houck, VMware's channel chief, said there is an US$8 billion opportunity for the channel to integrate CA solutions with VMware and then attach services.
