Netezza Announces Certification of Oracle Apps

September 03, 2009

Netezza Corporation, a vendor of data warehouse and analytic appliances, says it's continuing to "fulfill its strategy" of certifying numerous Oracle applications in data integration, data analysis and business intelligence and reporting.

 
The affirmation comes on the heels of the recent introduction of the Netezza TwinFin appliance and the new Oracle certifications.

The Oracle Business Intelligence Packaged Application is made up of components formerly available from Siebel Systems as Siebel Business Analytics Applications, augmented with new capabilities and third party applications. 
 
Netezza’s support of this packaged application means interoperability with its components, including Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition, Data Warehouse Administration Console, Business Analytics Warehouse and a third party data integration engine.

“Oracle is clearly the de facto standard in many large organizations and our strategy has always been to work with -- not disrupt -- our customers’ environments,” said Jim Baum, president and CEO of Netezza.

Earlier this week TMC had the news that Netezza, along with Fuzzy Logix, a Netezza Developer Network partner, announced that the Premier healthcare alliance will use Netezza's OnStream Analytics processing via Fuzzy Logix's DB Lytix to "speed up the delivery of healthcare knowledge to their affiliates nationwide."

By "exploiting the analytics," company officials said, Premier "will empower their members to transform healthcare delivery" while "continuing to reduce" healthcare costs.

"We've been using Netezza's appliances since 2004 and have seen performance gains of 10X to 100X over other platforms. By using OnStream Analytics processing via DB Lytix, we believe that we will once again experience another similar boost in performance," said Chris Stewart, senior architect, Premier.
 
"Partnering with Fuzzy Logix presents a great opportunity for us to improve the performance of existing applications and to leverage their skills to build custom analytical models that will drive higher value for our customers and investors," Stewart said.
