Peregrine Systems, Inc, a provider of Infrastructure Management software for the Infrastructure Resource Planning marketplace, represented locally by Software Futures, a CCH company, has announced it will offer Linux support for several of its product suites.
Beginning with Peregrine Systems ServiceCenter and AssetCenter products, the move will allow Linux users to deploy the first end-to-end solution for managing the life cycle of all an organisation's assets from the moment they are procured until they are retired. To ensure a seamless Linux integration, Peregrine Systems will work with Red Hat, a leading provider of open source products and solutions.
Peregrine Systems is making the commitment in order to allow Linux users to maintain IT assets at the highest availability with the lowest system cost to gain a competitive edge in today's marketplace.
"The past year has seen a remarkable jump in the Linux presence, especially as an effective operating system in conjunction with the Internet," says Sue Sealtiel, product manager at Software Futures. "It was a natural fit for Peregrine Systems to offer support for Linux and to offer Linux users the option of implementing a complete solution for their IT assets, rather than trying to fill the gaps left by point solutions."
With the addition of Linux, Peregrine Systems now offers support for every major server platform used by an organisation including the mainframe, HP/UX, Sun Solaris, IBM AIX and Windows NT. The integrated product suite from Peregrine Systems provides a unified view of an organisation's assets and provides functionality such as procurement, problem management, change management, lease management, service level agreement management, asset management and cost management
