IT products and services distributor Westcon Group has signed a deal with CA Technologies to provide its North American reseller partners access to the CA’s entire IT management product portfolio.

David Bradley, senior VP of global partners at CA, said, “With the rapid proliferation of converged infrastructures, IT management under one umbrella makes perfect sense. For more than a decade, we’ve partnered with industry experts at Westcon Group to accelerate adoption of our technology in key regions throughout the world.

“Based on this success, it’s a clear win to expand this relationship to North America.”

Daniel Papes, senior VP of global data center and cloud solutions at Westcon, said, “We have a long track-record with CA Technologies, helping them seamlessly enter new markets based on Westcon Group’s broad-based market focus and deep technology expertise. With its focus on converged management, CA Technologies is clearly one of the top vendors in the data center market, so it’s a natural progression to anchor our practice with such an important solution.”

As an initial stage to the multi-phased roll-out, Westcon will offer CA Nimsoft Monitor, a unified IT monitoring solution available either on-demand (Software-as-a-Service) or on-premise.
