FAIRFAX, VA, Oct. 20, 2015 /CNW Telbec/ - CGI (NYSE: GIB)
(TSX: GIB.A) today announced CGI

services and tools for managing both traditional and cloud-based IT
services, including governance, transparency and security. CGI
Unify360 makes it easier and less risky to adopt cloud services by
providing a single management platform and standards-based
compliance across all applications and data. The CGI solution

organizations increase performance, agility and innovation in
hybrid IT environments. It also features partnerships with
market-leading public cloud providers such as Amazon Web Services

"Enterprises are adding cloud-based solutions to their
traditional IT mix, yet holistic control of their IT environments
can be elusive, increasing cost and risk," said Rich Bissonette, Vice President of CGI's
Emerging Technology Practice. "CGI Unify360 provides the integrated
platform, services, partnerships and practices needed to understand
and manage an enterprise's entire IT portfolio, align with business
objectives, and maximize investments."

Drawing on CGI's front-line experience in migrating, managing and
governing cloud services, the solution offers guidance for
assessing best-fit environments and applying innovative
technology.
It is designed to help organizations seeking to:
- Leverage cloud services while maintaining legacy
environments
- Solve the problem of "rogue" cloud acquisition
- Improve governance for multi-vendor service engagements
- Centrally manage heterogeneous technologies across hybrid IT
environments
- Consolidate data centers and migrate legacy systems to
multi-cloud environments
Regardless of the cloud or IT providers used by an enterprise -
including internal IT shops or private clouds - CGI Unify360
provides complete visibility into the spend, service availability
and security of all elements in a hybrid IT universe. A single
interface is used for all provisioning, configuration, incident
management, reporting, billing, workload management and cyber
posture.
