CA Exec Discusses Jasmine II in Interview with IT Radio Network's Marc Holland.Business Editors LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--June 1, 2000 "You can think of Jasmine II as a whole new thing. It is a tremendous departure from what we've done in the past with the Jasmine product and it's heritage. It is an eBusiness platform," said Carl Hartman, VP of Computer Associates International, Inc. (NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange : CA), during a recent interview with IT Radio Network host Marc Holland. According to Holland, the release of Jasmine II has been long awaited. "There has been quite a buzz over the release of II. The first release was an object database, but the new release goes a lot further, and is designed specifically for the Internet," says Holland. "Jasmine II provides all of the faculties that one needs in order to develop next generation eBusiness apps," said Hartman. "Really what we're talking about is the ability to integrate any kind of data, from any source or platform, add intelligence, and deliver the information to the customer." During the interview, Hartman also discussed the concept of return on investment for IT expenditures. "(Previously) we would justify purchases or investments in IT by looking at how long it would be before they paid for themselves," said Hartman. "But today, with the advent of the Web and the tremendous pace you need to look beyond what you're spending, and look at how the technology can be applied to driving your business forward. Looking at how it can help you capitalize on opportunities. "In fact," added Hartman, "it might not just cost a lot, it could cost you everything."
