Sun Microsystems to acquire the Israeli developer of life cycle management application for Linux and Solaris systems, Aduva. The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.

"By acquiring Aduva, Sun will be addressing the number one pain point we hear from IT administrators - patch management - while addressing the principle cause of service downtime and system vulnerability: out of date systems and patches," said Don Grantham, executive vice president of Sun Services.

Aduva technology allows enterprises to automate the processes associated with patch and dependency management - providing a solution that scales from individual servers, up to large scale data centers with tens of thousands of machines in complex networks. Aduva currently runs an active dependency service for Solaris and Linux servers, easing the burden on systems administrators deploying a continuous stream of patches, updates, and changes required throughout the data center lifecycle. Founded in 1999, Aduva was backed by Intel Capital, IBM, BMC Software Evergreen Partners and Elwin Partner Capital.
