“The transaction hasn’t closed yet, so it’s hard for us to comment right now, but for right now it’s business as usual. By combining resources we’ll be able to invest more and innovate more.” What will you be releasing about roadmaps and plans for both products? We think is going to get the proper love and attention it needs. We’re a bunch of data geeks here we think that data architecture is the backbone of the IT industry. CA really wanted to focus on their core capabilities around mainframe, cloud and mobility. We’ve been working this deal for quite a while, years literally. We felt that by having both these technologies in one family it would give us the opportunity to innovate and have a greater impact on the entire industry. ERwin was just one part of CA’s business…and Data Architecture is what we do. “By bringing together these two businesses, we’d have greater momentum into the category.
Why ERwin, why now, and what’s going to happen? I spent some time with Steve Haney ( blog | VP of Marketing at Embarcadero, talking about the acquisition and what’s happening next. I’ll have some thoughts on that later.ĭisclosures: CA has been a sponsor of my monthly webinar, Big Challenges in Data Modeling here at Dataversity and I’ve also partnered with both CA and Embarcadero on efforts in the past. It’s this change that I think will make this acquisition the most interesting.
It’s something we haven’t seen for a while, though.īut even though we’ve been down this road before, we haven’t really seen a product shift from a larger organization back to a smaller organization that specializes in data and database technologies. PowerDesigner started at PowerBuilder, then Sybase and now is owned by SAP. ERwin started at Logic Works, then went to Platinum Technologies, then CA Technologies. If you’ve been in the data architecture business as long as I have, you’ve been through these shifts in ownership a few times. The layout of the UML Class Diagrams from ARIS UML Designer is also maintained in the Subject Areas in ERwin Data Modeler, and vice versa.I’m sure a lot of you were surprised to read late last week that CA ERwin Data Modeler properties had been purchased by Embarcadero Technologies. When using the “IE Data Model” in ARIS, the layout of the Entity – Relationship Diagrams is mai ntained in ERwin Data Modeler, and vice versa. Furthermore Physical Data Models from ERwin Data Modeler can be migrated to ARIS Table Diagrams (unidirectional interface). The ARIS D ata M odels and UML Class Diagrams are converted to Logical Data Models i n ERwin Data Modeler, and vice versa. + eERM – e xte nded Entity Relationship Model + IE Data Model – Information Engineering Data Model (recomm ended for ERwin Data Modeler Integration ) The TOOLBUS Interface for ARIS and ERwin Data Modeler enables the bi – directional migration o f Data Models and UML Class Diagrams between CA E Rwin Data Modeler Data Modeler and ARIS Business Architect, Oracle Business Process Architect, the ARIS Toolset and ARIS UML Designer.
