All leaders offer the high degree of flexibility, scalability and support critical to enterprise-level ARA investment success.”

“End-to-end automation of the software code pipeline is a requirement for agile organizations focused on quickly bringing innovations to market,” said Jeff Scheaffer, general manager, Continuous Delivery, CA Technologies. “We consider our positioning in the Leader’s quadrant by Gartner recognition of our commitment to providing an integrated and open continuous delivery ecosystem that enables organizations to deliver new applications to market quicker, with higher quality, and at a lower cost.”
