OpenText's Next-Gen Data Management Suite Covers Microservices

Hybrid-cloud platform enables developer-ready microservices that allow users to develop intelligent and connected applications for numerous use cases. It’s a virtual dream (no pun intended) for IT and network administrators to open a single master data management platform and be able to control the movement and/or deployment of a production workload from an on-premises location, to one in a cloud, and then to another in a second cloud, if need be. Not long ago, this whole process was either: a) very difficult to do without dropping a ball somewhere and causing ire, either for management or for a customer; or b) basically impossible. This isn’t the case anymore. OpenText, the largest business software company in Canada and a global leader in Enterprise Information Management (EIM), now provides this type of platform. The Toronto-based company at its annual OpenText Enterprise World conference on July 10 released OpenText OT2, a next-generation hybrid-cloud platform that it claims combines intelligent automation, security and EIM applications in a unified platform.
