BMC Middleware Automation

Part of the BMC Application Management Suite

Quickly deploy applications and expertly manage their configurations — without scripting — for faster delivery and fewer outages

Deploy, configure, and troubleshoot Java EE applications quickly, efficiently, and safely. Ensure the consistency of your deployment environments by quickly diagnosing problems in application server configurations.

BMC Middleware Automation eliminates configuration scripts and manual steps. In addition, this product:

• Automatically obtains configuration information from a known good instance, so you can replicate configurations across environments
• Lets you take your deployments through a dry run to see what changes will be made without making them
• Eliminates incremental scripts or “hot fixes” so you can catch up from any starting point to where that server needs to be
• Rolls back to the last known “good state” if all or part of an installation fails
• Automatically migrates older server configurations to new versions in minutes
• Establishes standard configurations and regularly compares production servers against the standard
• Logs and captures all changes, including old and new settings, in detailed reports

With BMC Middleware Automation, you will:

• Dramatically reduce application release cycles from weeks to hours
• Eliminate errors with consistent deployments across multiple environments – physical, virtual, or cloud
• Greatly reduce dependence on experts to handle repetitive and mundane tasks
• Simplify troubleshooting of configuration related problems
• Reduce installation and configuration risk by eliminating manual processes
• Improve productivity by eliminating deployment script maintenance and release process documentation
