Why Is Software Configuration Management
Important?

• Regulatory changes/audit requirements
• Applications requiring 7x24x365 availability
• Application deployment failures
• Production recovery very costly
• Loss of market share / image / revenue
• Heterogeneous composite applications requiring
  management across the enterprise
• Tight IT budgets
• Skills availability
• Competitive pressures

Have You Ever Said Any Of The Following?

• Our complex enterprise applications are too large
  and impossible to understand
• So many different people have maintained our
  applications that we dont know which parts of
  the code actually operate and which parts are
  obsolete
• We need to modify and leverage our applications,
  but cannot estimate the impact or time to make
  the required changes
• We do not have enough staff to maintain or modify
  our applications
• We want to retire part of our application
  portfolio and need to know how these applications
  interrelate

ClearPath MCP Software Release Strategy
Adjustments
49
ClearPath Software Release Strategy

• Current Situation
• Increasing demands for business agility and 7x24
  availability of IT infrastructures
• Some ClearPath customers skip major (x.0)
  releases to reduce the cost and impact of
  migrating to new releases

• Why make some adjustments?
• Enable customers to continue to take advantage of
  new software products and features
• Reduce the costs associated with migrating to new
  major (x.0) software releases
• Increase customer flexibility and control when
  introducing new functionality into the IT
  infrastructure

50
ClearPath Software Release Strategy

• Whats not changing
• Unisys will continue to support interim (x.1,
  x.2, and so on) software releases for as long as
  the underlying major (x.0) release is supported.
• Unisys will continuously deliver new software
  products and features each year between major
  releases via
• Interim (x.1, x.2) releases
• Independent releases
• Downloadable interim corrections
