HPs lösningar för applikationstransformation skapar flexibilitet och snabbhet
IT och teknik är företagens “innovationsmotor”
STOCKHOLM, 12 april, 2011 – HP lanserar idag nya lösningar för applikationstransformation som är utformade att hjälpa företag att driva och utveckla innovation genom att erbjuda flexibilitet och snabbhet.
I dagens samhälle där alla söker omedelbar access förväntar sig både människor och företag en säker och snabb tillgång till information oavsett var eller när de behöver det. För detta behövs ett Instant-On Företag som snabbt kan svara på de nya behoven.
- Innovation är det som skiljer marknadsledare från marknadsföljare och vi ser att innovation spelar en avgörande roll för företag idag. HPs InstantOn-strategi tillsammans med nya lösningar för applikationstransformation hjälper företagen att effektivisera processerna samt driva innovation till att bidra till det bättre affärsresultat, säger Kjell Ahlzén, VD HP Sverige & Affärsområdeschef HP Enterprise Business Sverige.
Ny undersökning genomförd på uppdrag av HP visar vilken roll innovation spelar i företag och organisationer idag. 95 procent av cheferna inom både den privata och offentliga sektorn anser att innovation är viktigt för deras företags framgång. På frågan varför innovation är viktigt var den främsta anledningen framtida tillväxt både i den privata och den offentliga sektorn (84 procent respektive 63 procent).(1)
Respondenterna menade även att ”förändrade krav från kunder och allmänheten” och ”att producera produkter och tjänster av ännu bättre kvalitet” var de huvudsakliga målen med innovation. För att förstå vad som är drivkraften till innovation i företagen bad man respondenterna identifiera “innovationsmotorn”. Mer än två tredjedelar av de tillfrågade cheferna menade att det var IT och teknik.
Undersökningens mål var även att försöka avgöra vilka investeringar chefer prioriterar först, med målet att driva innovation framåt. På första plats nämnde man “applikationer och mjukvara för mer flexibla processer.”
För att hjälpa företag att accelerera innovationen expanderar nu HP sin Application Transformation-lösning och presenterar sju nya erbjudanden. Den förbättrade portföljen möjliggör kunderna att bedöma, modernisera och hantera applikationer.

HP also partnered with the Italian Ministry of Instruction, University and Research (MIUR) that manages the staff at 10,500 schools. MIUR implemented a solution including Application Modernization Services from HP. The key deliverable was the transformation of thousands of COBOL batch programs, which were then re-hosted on a modern infrastructure. As a result, MIUR reduced its application portfolio by 33 percent and development costs by 38%. MIUR also projects a savings in hardware and software licensing of more than €12 million over three years and complete retirement of mainframe architecture adopted 30 years ago.
Assessing application environments for greatest impact on innovation
HP Application Transformation solutions enable enterprises to understand their application portfolios, decide what to keep, change or retire. This is the first step in their transformation journey.
HP Application Portfolio Management (APM) software, delivered as a service, helps enterprises rapidly identify areas for portfolio rationalization using fact-based analysis against a set of enterprise goals. APM serves as the foundation for the enterprise application transformation plan and helps to reduce the cost and risks associated with modernization projects. By combining APM with HP Applications Rationalization services, clients can receive a customized applications transformation roadmap that delivers the optimal application portfolio.
HP Applications Transformation to Cloud services help enterprises analyze their application and infrastructure environments to determine cloud suitability, develop a customized roadmap for transformation and ultimately deliver those applications via the cloud.
Modernizing application environments
HP is helping clients transform legacy applications into agile services through a full portfolio of application consulting, development, integration and outsourcing services.
HP Application Transformation Services for Client Computing modernizes client device environments to Windows 7, delivering improved productivity, mobility and security. Using automation, standardized processes and a global workforce, HP can drive down the cost and time needed for implementation.
Managing application environments to ensure security
With the threats from application risks increasing both in number and sophistication, security is a major concern and challenge for modernization projects. HP Fortify Real-Time Hybrid Analysis is the first application security analysis solution that discovers the root cause of software vulnerabilities by observing attacks in real time.
By using HP Fortify Real-Time Hybrid Analysis in concert with new versions of HP Fortify 360 and HP Application Security Center, enterprises can proactively deliver the application security intelligence required to effectively manage risk.
Using hybrid delivery models to speed application transformation
HP offers a full range of cloud-based solutions to help clients on their journey to the cloud. HP announced three new offerings in its cloud portfolio that increase flexibility and speed time to solution.

With new automation enhancements, one-touch provisioning and monitoring capabilities, HP Cloud Service Automation 2.0 enables enterprise to quickly build their own public or private cloud and speed application delivery to market.
— HP Exchange Services for Private Cloud helps enterprises get a “pay per use” model of cloud computing along with an enterprise-grade level of performance and security. This provides the benefits of cloud computing without the associated risks.
— HP Enterprise Cloud Services for Microsoft Dynamics CRM offers Microsoft’s market-leading Dynamics CRM software suite via a virtual, private cloud. This alternate delivery model combines the benefits of a cloud-based model with HP’s extensive experience in running customer relationship management systems and contact centers.
