QueryObject, Metagenix Roll Out WWW Data Warehouse

QueryObject Systems Corporation announced that it is partnering with Metagenix Incorporated of Durham, North Carolina to deliver web-based business intelligence solutions to key web-based markets. Under the terms of the partnership agreement, Metagenix will actively resell and integrate the QueryObject System with its GenaMart datamart. In combination with GenaMart, the QueryObject System brings to the data warehousing market an end-to-end solution for customers who need to structure environments that support rapid analysis of very large amounts of business data.

The QueryObject System extends the Metagenix GenaMart solution by delivering terabyte-volume data in an efficient, manageable, cost-effective manner over the web, to information consumers across the enterprise, or outside corporate boundaries.

"We are pleased and excited about the opportunity using the QueryObject System presents for Metagenix," said Lance Carroll, Vice-President of Sales and Marketing for Metagenix, Inc. "This product uniquely allows us to extend our present business intelligence solutions to clients in large data volume industries, in an extremely cost-effective manner."

"This is a key business partnership for QueryObject Systems," said CEO Robert Thompson. "By integrating QueryObjects core competence - the ability to allow users to analyze more data in more detail, more quickly, over the Internet -- within the GenaMart management environment, Metagenix will have one of the easiest to use, highest scalability web-based Business Intelligence solutions in the market.

About the QueryObject System

The QueryObject System allows data intensive organizations such as telecommunications, healthcare and insurance, or financial services companies to achieve competitive advantage by analyzing more data ... in more detail ... more quickly ... over the Internet, or within other corporate environments.

The system easily transforms large volumes of business data into a compact, highly distributable data mart -- a QueryObject -- that can then be analyzed using industry standard tools and techniques. Where other technologies build subject-specific datamarts whose limited content, fixed schema, moderate dimensionality and high levels of aggregation make them suitable for single-user classes and single applications, the QueryObject's high content, polymorphic schema, and high dimensionality permits multiple-user classes to access granular level data in support of multiple applications across the extended enterprise. This enables more efficient data deployment with a reduction in administrative overhead.

The QueryObject is the first true Information Age data structure, optimized for data access and distribution over the Internet. Where most databases were designed for client-server transaction processing, the QueryObject is architected for Internet data analysis. Its industry-leading design permits large amounts of source data to be efficiently stored as a densely compressed loss-less mass, while a unique polynomial index provides instant random access to both the cross-dimensional totals and -- via match keys -- to the supporting transaction level data. The benefits are fast consistent analysis of large data volumes and concurrent support of a large user population.

The QueryObject Engine, which transforms production, warehouse or legacy data into QueryObjects, runs on Mainframe, UNIX and Windows NT servers, allowing organizations to save time by processing the data directly on the platform on which it is stored.

The QueryObject Server, running on UNIX or Windows NT, provides open end-user access to the QueryObject data marts. Support for industry data access standards -- JDBC, ODBC and OLE/DB -- mean that the QueryObject Server provides a powerful analytical back-end to most Business Intelligence tools, increasing their scalability, query speed and ability to support many concurrent users. QueryObject Server is available as a WEB Edition for Internet Business Intelligence; Enterprise Edition for client-server deployments; and Personal Edition for stand-alone and mobile computing.

For organizations that want to extend data analysis capabilities beyond their traditional BI communities the QueryObject Analyzer Server (Unix, NT, Linux) compliments QueryObject server strengths by providing web-based users with FREE downloadable access to a multi-dimensional Java client that turns their standard browsers into a flexible, intuitive, analytical client. QueryObject Analyzer empowers the extended enterprise to make better decisions based on easy inexpensive access to all the relevant data.
