BMC Software has added a number of new capabilities to its flagship BMC Helix and Control-M products, as the legacy IT services company, which traditionally targeted mainframes, seeks to meet today’s data management and operations requirements with highly distributed infrastructures. During much of BMC’s user conference BMC Exchange 2021 in late October, company representatives, users and partners described how BMC Helix and Control-M help to further the needs of what BMC describes as the “autonomous digital enterprise,” for cloud and on-premises environments.

Specific to improving workflows by supporting DevOps processes for DataOps, BMC’s Control-M Python client allows data for integration with data science and data engineering tools and open source code.

Control-M allows data scientists to use Python to create workflows for orchestrating data pipelines in such a way so that the Control-M Python client automatically translates the Python code to Control-M workflows,” said Ali Siddiqui, BMC’s chief product officer, during a keynote.

Other new Control-M and Helix capabilities BMC discussed during BMC Exchange included: Amazon Web Services and BMC Software are sponsors of The New Stack.
