Mondial Assistance USA Selects Attunity to Accelerate Application Releases Throughout Global Server Infrastructure

Attunity's RepliWeb Deployment Manager streamlines Application Lifecycle Management and Enables Rapid and Continuous Deployment Goals

BURLINGTON, Massachusetts, October 24, 2011/PRNewswire-FirstCall/ --

    Attunity Ltd. (OTC BB: ATTUF.OB), a leading provider of real-time data
integration software, announces that Mondial Assistance USA, part of the
Allianz group of companies, has selected Attunity's RepliWeb Deployment
Manager (RepliWeb) to manage production releases of web applications, code
updates and web content refreshes throughout its global datacenter
infrastructures. RepliWeb will be tightly integrated into Mondial Assistance
USA's Application Lifecycle Management workflows and business processes,
enabling rapid and continuous deployment goals.

    The international leader in Travel Insurance, Mondial Assistance USA's
significant business growth has necessitated expanded development
initiatives and IT Infrastructure. This rapid IT expansion added strain to
legacy processes; manual deployment efforts required greater team resources,
introduced risks, and also limited release windows.

    In selecting RepliWeb, Mondial Assistance USA is able to accelerate
production releases and better govern the entire Release Management process
across Development, Testing, and globally distributed Production
environments. To help achieve true Application Release Automation, Mondial
Assistance USA leverages RepliWeb's repeatable, reproducible deployment
methods. Change control mechanisms and transparency now allow for efficient
cross-team collaboration across Development and Operations Teams.

    "Prior to RepliWeb, our team use to assemble at 4:00 am to manage
critical deployments," explained Chris Burroughs, VP of Infrastructure
Services, Mondial Assistance USA. "The introduction of RepliWeb helped
reduce deployment-related administration by 60% and virtually eliminated
risks associated with legacy manual efforts."

    "Now that we are able to build standardized, reproducible processes with
RepliWeb, our team no longer spends time scripting deployments, updating
documentation, and manually checking production servers. Operational
improvements and gains in productivity allowed us to immediately achieve an
ROI equivalent to one Full Time Employee. And most importantly, our team is
able to quickly respond to the demands of the Business and provide a
high-quality production experience for our end-users".

    To extend the value of RepliWeb Deployment, Mondial Assistance USA will
extend the products reach to automate the deployment of "Builds" from
Microsoft Team Foundation Server 2010 (TFS) to Testing environments. When
extended to TFS, RepliWeb will allow Mondial Assistance USA to maintain a
unified build-release deployment methodology that includes end-to-end
reporting.

    "RepliWeb is helping Development and Operations Teams standardize
processes and achieve continuous integration goals, aligning large-scale
production releases with more rapid, incremental code releases," commented
Garrick Herrmann, Vice President of Sales for Atttunity. "As a result,
organizations can scale their web and application infrastructure, reduce
risks, and realize improvements to their bottom line."
