    Information Builders to Embed Infobright Analytic Database into Product Offering

    Toronto, Ontario – February 6, 2012 – Infobright today announced that Information Builders, an independent leader in business intelligence (BI) solutions, has entered into an OEM agreement with Infobright for its Infobright® Enterprise Edition (IEE) analytic database.

    Information Builders' WebFOCUS business intelligence platform is installed in tens of thousands of locations, servicing millions of users worldwide. With the huge growth of data volumes being captured and the expanding need for real-time reporting and analytics, IEE adds value to Information Builders' products as an embedded database for applications that capture and store large quantities of data. IEE enables very fast query performance without any manual effort and compresses data at rates averaging 10:1 to 40:1, allowing users to store far more data in a small hardware footprint.

    "Many of our customers are experiencing the challenges associated with Big Data," said David Sandel, senior vice president, Business Intelligence Product Group and Worldwide Customer Services, of Information Builders. "Embedding Infobright's analytic database into our product offerings will provide the performance they need without the work other databases require, and will significantly reduce hardware and operational costs while storing much greater volumes of data."

    "Information Builders' selection of Infobright technology as their embedded analytic database is an enormous validation of our company and our products," said Don DeLoach, CEO of Infobright. "Businesses can't wait days or weeks for the insight they need to compete and win, and Information Builders and Infobright deliver solutions that provide the real-time intelligence leading organizations require today."
