Anubis and MicroStrategy Form Technical Partnership
ACTION ITEMS


Anubis, a provider of innovative data warehouse design software, announced that it has formed a technical partnership with MicroStrategy, a leading Relational On-line Analytical Processing (ROLAP) vendor.

Under the new partnership, Anubis will offer tighter integration of its flagship design tool, Constructa, with MicroStrategy's DSS Agent. Constructa is a product dedicated to business dimensional modeling, a recommended approach for companies to build data warehouses. Constructa accelerates warehouse development, improves quality, and integrates design elements across an enterprise's multiple data warehouses and marts. Linking Constructa to MicroStrategy's award winning DSS Agent product will allow companies to design and deploy robust decision support systems in record timeframes.

The two companies plan to offer joint Constructa/DSS Agent training classes to help their customers apply business dimensional modeling and ROLAP techniques to design high quality, performance-optimized data warehouses. MicroStrategy's consultants will also be trained on Constructa, enabling them to effectively aid customers using the joint Constructa/DSS Agent solution.

"This partnership provides significant benefits to customers building enterprise decision support systems using MicroStrategy's products," said Sanju K. Bansal, chief operating officer at MicroStrategy. "By streamlining the warehouse development and maintenance process, Anubis Constructa automates a warehouse design methodology that is naturally suited for running DSS Agent applications."

Adeeb Shana'a, an Anubis principal, welcomed the relationship with MicroStrategy, a recognized leader in decision support technology. "This partnership provides companies with a complete integrated warehouse development solution," he said. "By using Constructa and DSS Agent, the warehouse design and DSS development processes are automatically connected, leading to faster roll-out, improved satisfaction of end user requirements, and simplified ongoing maintenance."

Anubis, located in the San Francisco Bay Area, is a leader in innovative data warehouse design technology.
