Cloud computing casts a shadow on CA Technologies future

August 12, 2014 - Research O131

CA Technologies primary line of business is being disrupted by the cloud. The company, which depends on profits from its legacy mainframe products to subsidize other parts of the business is in the process of losing this important stream of revenue. Without capital, it will be difficult for the company to make the investments in software development and maintain the value of its products. Developing new revenue requires CA innovate, acquire, or service – none of which seem likely to be effective.
