ASG attends enterprise architecture conference to demonstrate business service management (BSM) platform

ASG, an enterprise software provider to Global 5000 companies, will be taking part in this year's influential Enterprise Architecture Conference in London, publicly demonstrating for the first time in the United Kingdom a new business service management (BSM) solution ASG's Business Service Platform comprises a suite of highly integrated software that is closely linked to the principles of best practice in enterprise architecture and supports adoption of the IT Infrastructure Library

The company will also highlight its robust metadata management technology that ASG believes is fundamental to the successful achievement of enterprise architecture (EA) projects.

ASG is one of a group of major vendors sponsoring the international event, organised by IRM UK Strategic IT Training.

ASG's BSP is a new suite of software that enables public and private sector organisations to develop and maintain excellence in BSM.

It lets IT departments deliver real business value by identifying, correlating, and ensuring the best alignment between IT investments and the performance of an organisation.

The new BSM solution is built on the company's well-developed metadata management technology, ASG-Rochade.

The latter is an enterprise-scale metadata repository and knowledge engine designed for use in medium to large-size organisations.

Within ASG's BSP it provides the basis for a powerful configuration management database (CMDB), a single repository of data for all elements in the IT environment essential to achieve effective and scalable BSM.

"ASG's BSP will not only help organisations to improve business performance and enhance competitive edge, but also comply with mandatory regulation and internal rules of governance".

"In addition it will support the adoption of and adherence to ITIL business service standards," said Richard Vance, Executive Vice President of Operations at ASG.

To complement the new solution, ASG-Rochade will represent the main theme of the company's stand at the Enterprise Architecture Conference in London.

It is central to ASG's comprehensive range of solutions for addressing key issues in enterprise architecture, metadata management, and business service management.

An enterprise metadata repository provides the master data for IT management and the essential underlying technology platform to underpin a strategic and practical enterprise architecture framework.

ASG-Rochade is already used by many organisations to form the basis of their enterprise architecture initiatives.

The ASG solution tracks the relationship and provides a contextual framework for all the assets being managed in the IT environment, which may include information, or metadata, about facilities, infrastructure, network, applications, data stores, models, business processes, organisation, and business goals.

The unique capabilities of ASG-Rochade have been used to solve many business problems related to communication and understanding in areas such as Business Service Management (BSM), Data Warehouse, Component/Object Management, Portfolio Management, and Enterprise Architecture.
