XtremeData, the analytical database software and appliance specialist, today announced that Ohio-based Relational Solutions, Inc., the leading provider of enterprise demand signal repository (DSR) solutions for the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry, has adopted XtremeData's dbX data warehouse appliance to empower their customers with deeper and faster analytic insights.
Relational Solutions Inc. (RSI) offers a suite of software applications and hosted services specializing in the integration and harmonization of downstream retail Point-Of-Sale (POS) data for global CPG companies. RSI's key application, POSmart, expedites the integration and cleansing of POS data with ERP and third-party syndicated data, providing a framework for deep analysis.
"We adopted dbX for its 10X performance improvement over our existing environment, its scalability to 100s of terabytes and its ability to quickly create data marts to better service our customers," said Rob York, CEO at Relational Solutions, Inc. "This gives us a clear competitive advantage and allows our customers faster time-to-knowledge when using our hosted, cloud-based service."
The dbX series of appliances are fully integrated platforms designed specifically for the unconstrained (ad hoc) analysis and exploration of large data sets. These systems incorporate all the components of an analysis system: storage, computing, interconnect network and database engine. The dbX systems eliminate significant labor costs in the configuration and performance tuning typically needed with other data warehousing solutions. The appliances are modular and easily scalable, with built-in virtualization features allowing a system to be carved into smaller data marts on demand. dbX offers rapid deployments, low costs and fast time-to-cash for end-users.
"RSI has deep expertise in building DSR systems for CPG companies and their hosting service offers a quick turn-around, ready-packaged, complete solution," said Ravi Chandran, CEO of XtremeData. "The growth in RSI's hosted solution led them to evaluate data warehouse MPP systems. Performance and scalability were top priorities for their database infrastructure. dbX solves both of these issues at a compelling price point. We are excited about working with RSI to enable and grow their hosted analytic services."
RSI and XtremeData will be showcasing the benefits of this powerful DSR analytic environment at TDWI in San Diego on August 17th and 18th at booth ?405. Visit www.tdwi.org (http://www.tdwi.org) for information and directions to the event.
