Lexington, MA, December 5, 2007— BladeLogic, Inc.
(Nasdaq: BLOG), a leading provider of next-generation data center
automation software, announced today that it will host a webinar
on Thursday, December 6th, 2007 at 11:30 a.m. (ET) entitled, “Turning
Your Data Center into a Profit Center.” The format for the

Mark Gathje, Vice President, Architecture & Technology Services,

3rd Presenter, Leading Defense Supplier - To Be Announced
While companies realize they can cut costs through innovative
software solutions, most commonly view IT as a necessary cost
center. However, forward-thinking IT organizations are finding
that by automating their data center management initiatives, they
are not only becoming more productive, they are generating significant
impact on the top line while controlling their bottom line. By
enabling these organizations to increase server/administrator
ratios, meet critical compliance requirements faster, and better
align IT with the overall objectives of the business, data center
automation is turning IT into a profit center.
In this groundbreaking webinar, Smith, Gathje and a senior-level
executive from a leading supplier of defense systems will discuss
what they have done to automate their data center environments
and the business benefits they have experienced by doing so. These
leading IT executives will share their data center automation
insights and best practices that have led to key cost savings
such as:
• Lower overall data center operations costs by improving
server to administrator ratios
• Lower administration costs by consolidating tools and
centralizing management of multi-vendor, multi-platform environments
• Lower costs associated with identifying, capturing and
maintaining data center asset information
• Reduced maintenance costs through task automation and
automated remediation
• Reduced provisioning costs by consolidating and centralizing
all activities independent of platform
• Lower costs associated with compliance audits by enforcing
compliance policies across regulatory, operations, standards,
best practices and security perspectives
• Reduced deployment costs through increased accuracy of
distributed application rollouts across environments
• Reduced service downtime costs by expediting rollback
to the last consistent state
• Lower setup costs by automating existing manual and error-prone
procedures
