CA Product Roadmaps Cancelled

This will surely bring confidence for our customers... Guess the layoffs will severely affect the products

Roadmaps at CA have never been binding.

It is different than a normal acquisition. In a normal technology acquisition the target keeps their original roadmaps for 12-18 months as they usually have customer commitments.

This is a very different case. Outside of mainframe, all of the existing roadmaps will be torched. The only future road maps are fire more people, divest, shut down, or save more money for the ESTG products

Right. Broadcom will come up with their own roadmaps. This is not unexpected.

Nobody comes to work anymore in my office. People that know they have jobs with Broadcom are allegedly working from home.

I’m sure the number of new product deals closed (zero) and length of renewals (short) for the quarter had an impact too.

This seemed likely regardless of the layoffs, which will not doubt majorly impact it, but when there is such a major transition roadmaps are going to be impacted layoffs or no.

Obvious things are obvious.
