FedEx has selected the Opsware System to help it make
the most of its IT resources.
FedEx said it would use the software to exploit its IT resources
more efficiently and respond more quickly to customer and market
demands.
The Opsware System will automate the operational life cycle of
FedEx's servers and applications as well as the process for
recovering servers. The software will replace tasks now done
manually.
"IT automation is crucial for an agile organisation like ours
that has to respond quickly to customer demands and a dynamic
business environment," said FedEx chief information officer Robert
Carter. "The Opsware System is an IT automation solution that is
proven to work in large, distributed environments and can integrate
with our existing infrastructure."
