Information Builders
Information Builders, Inc., and ESRI are working together to deliver a new breed of business intelligence. To address customer driven demand, the two organizations have teamed to deliver a geographic business intelligence solution (GBIS) that extends the real-time enterprise business intelligence and reporting capabilities of WebFOCUS, Information Builders' leading information delivery product, to ESRI's powerful ArcIMS Internet mapping software. The combined solution allows users throughout the extended enterprise to rapidly and intuitively analyze real-time information with a spatial component by presenting business intelligence information in the context of physical location. GBIS improves decision making and responsiveness while extending the reach of GIS to address a wide range of business applications and integrate natively with more than 85 data sources. In addition, ETL Manager, an extraction, transformation, and load tool, and other information access technologies by iWay Software, an Information Builders company, enable ESRI's ArcGIS Server product to seamlessly extract and encapsulate enterprise data for transformation into spatial representations. Together, ESRI and Information
Builders meet the market demand for integrated business and location intelligence capabilities. Organizations in telecommunications, financial services, retail, manufacturing, and the public sector are finding this combination of technology critical to managing their businesses and making effective decisions.
