Compuware (News - Alert) Corporation, an application performance management (APM (News - Alert)) solution provider, has been helping customers optimize the performance of their technologies that drive their businesses forward.
Now Compuware has announced that it’s selling Compuware's Changepoint, Professional Services and Uniface business units to Marlin Equity Partners, a global investment firm. Compuware has just completed the agreement.
The divestment is part of Compuware’s strategy to align its organization with the core business and extend its leadership in the APM market, said Bob Paul, president and CEO of Compuware, in a statement.
"This closing also allows us to turn our attention to the remaining steps in our strategic transformation, many of which are well underway, which will drive revenue and earnings growth in the coming periods," Paul added.
Marlin Equity Partners has a successful track record in the technology industry.
Both companies will ensure a smooth transition so that customers enjoy uninterrupted service and continue to receive the full value of their investments in the affected solutions and services, the company said.
According to Compuware, more than 7,100 companies, including many of the world's largest organizations, depend on Compuware solutions.
In another simultaneous development, Compuware announced a major new release of its Data Center Real User Monitoring solution (DC RUM).
The new DC RUM is designed to change the way customers triage performance issues across the network and application layer, the company said. Compuware DC RUM automatically identifies the bottleneck and also provides the user with transaction context required to solve the problem with packet-level visibility.
The DC RUM now comes with enhanced analytics and new network packet capture and analysis capabilities designed to simplify identification and triage of performance issues across applications, infrastructure and network.
