Helps Customers Prioritize and Migrate Data Based on Business Value

Dubai, UAE June 28th, 2006 - CA (NYSE:CA), one of the world's largest IT management software companies, today announced an agreement under which CA will incorporate the ARKIVIO AUTO-STOR enterprise file management solution into its BrightStor product line, helping customers in the Middle East simplify data management while optimizing storage resources across heterogeneous data and storage environments within the region.

ARKIVIO AUTO-STOR is a leading Information Lifecycle Management (ILM) solution that discovers and organizes data and storage according to its business value. It complements CA's BrightStor email archiving, recovery and resource management solutions by creating and automatically executing policies to move data to optimal resources across SAN (Storage Area Network), NAS (Network Attached Storage) and storage grids. CA will market the product as CA File System Manager.

Abdul Karim Riyaz, Regional Director of CA's Storage and Protection Business in the EMEA Eastern markets said, "CA is continuing its leadership in IT storage technology by adding the critical capability of managing organization wide information resources. Our recent addition of a world class email archival and compliance solution along with this announcement of the File System Manager is an example of this. While complementing our recovery management and resource management solutions, these new additions provide regional organisations great value by managing and protecting their important data at lower costs, while helping them to comply with various local and international regulations".

The ARKIVIO AUTO-STOR classification system sorts' data at a granular level, allowing value to be assigned based on key business criteria. Using a patented ILM scoring system, the policy engine leverages this information to execute policies that transparently move data among resources.

Giovanni Paliska, president and CEO of Arkivio said, "We are excited about the new synergy between ARKIVIO AUTO-STOR and CA's BrightStor line. This agreement will provide our customers the unique opportunity of using this multi-platform ILM scoring system thereby helping them control escalating storage costs without compromising end-users' access to critical data."

CA's BrightStor solutions help customers leverage their storage infrastructure investments and protect critical data assets. Managers can make informed decisions about resource allocation based on the business value of data assets and operational requirements. They can also optimize the efficiency of backup and restore processes and enhance staff productivity.
