Aldon, the leading provider of application lifecycle management (ALM) solutions announces a strategic technology partnership with SQL Farms to deliver process-driven change management to database administrators (DBAs) and developers that will simplify code development and deployment across multiple databases, applications and IT environments.

PR9.NET January 22, 2008 - EMERYVILLE, CA and RESTON, VA - Aldon, the leading provider of process-driven application lifecycle management (ALM) solutions, today announced a strategic technology partnership with SQL Farms, a leading provider of database management tools for large SQL Server IT environments. The partnership is aimed at delivering change management to database administrators (DBAs) and developers that will simplify development across multiple databases and applications, increase process automation and synchronize IT departments.

The database is one of the most critical corporate assets for any organization and managing multiple ones can be very challenging and time consuming. Even more challenging can be bringing database objects to an application. Until now, that process has been tedious and manual for both the DBAs and developers because the database lifecycle lives completely separate from the application development lifecycle. The Aldon and SQL Farms combined technology delivers a solution that will seamlessly integrate the database with the application and eliminate manual issues while providing proper change management and database integrity.

The partnership represents an opportunity for companies to synchronize developers and DBAs into one core process-centric solution for better management control. All too often DBAs are disconnected from the rest of the development process and work without process automation, leaving CIOs to manage many groups from different systems despite a constant cross-over of responsibilities. Aldon's process-driven ALM eliminates that silo effect because it automates and manages change to both the application lifecycle and database objects. The integrated solution also provides an automated, traceable audit trail, so management can meet regulatory obligations.

"SQL Farms is thrilled to work with Aldon. We share the same methodology of lifecycle process automation which made this strategic partnership a natural choice," said Dr. Omri Bahat, co-founder and director, SQL Farms. "As a standalone, SQL Farms increases productivity and automation for DBAs, but when you add Aldon to the mix the impact is tripled. Together we can help IT departments better address rapid business change and be a real asset to their organization."

"For Aldon, delivering continuous improvement and process management across every facet of IT operations is our ultimate objective," said Matt Scholl, president and COO, Aldon. "Partnering with a company like SQL Farms helps us to deliver on that goal. We're truly impressed by SQL Farm's technology and excited to bring it to the ALM world."
