NEWS AND VIEWS FOR COMPUWARE CUSTOMERS

Welcome from Pete Summers

Welcome to June’s Insight.

As always we hope that this edition of Insight helps you keep abreast of the latest technologies and give you updates on Compuware solutions and services.

This edition looks at how Model-Driven, Pattern-Based Development and automated Requirements Management can result in productivity gains of up to 70%.

Other highlights include the announcement of CU2006, our worldwide Uniface Conference, to be held in France in November. You will find this in our development and integration area. Our application performance management area includes a webcast of expert advice on troubleshooting web services applications with Vantage Analyzer. Finally, our enterprise readers will find a Gartner White Paper describing a useful health check for mainframe systems and news of a Compuware service designed to help you eliminate performance problems and cut the costs of application ownership – a service from which many of our customers have already profited, as you’ll see.

I hope you find the articles useful and as always we appreciate your feedback so that we can ensure Insight continues to address your needs.

Best wishes

Pete Summers, EMEA Marketing Director.
