Joint Solution Delivers Timely Data at a Low Cost with Minimal System Impact


WOODCLIFF LAKE, N.J. and BURLINGTON, Mass., June 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Syncsort, a global leader in high-performance data integration software, and Attunity, Ltd. (OTC Bulletin Board: ATTUF), a leading provider of real-time data integration and event capture, announced today a strategic partnership to solve complex real-time data integration challenges. Through this relationship, the companies will promote the use of the world record performance, low total cost of ownership, and ease-of-use of Syncsort's DMExpress with the low-impact, log-based, real-time change data capture (CDC) capabilities of Attunity's Attunity Stream.


DMExpress leverages Attunity Stream to capture only the changes made to underlying source systems, eliminating the need to perform costly data refreshes or data snapshot comparisons. The seamless integration between Attunity Stream and DMExpress enables changes to be processed in real time and lowers implementation costs. With organizations facing the challenge of exploding data volumes, the joint offering delivers a practical solution for delivering timely information to end-users at a low cost with minimal impact on source systems.


"Given the current economic environment, the demand for cost-effective solutions and greater performance is stronger than it has ever been. Our new alliance meets this demand by delivering information to end-users in real time and at a low total cost of ownership," said Harvey Tessler, Senior Vice President of Marketing and Product Management at Syncsort. "DMExpress has now expanded its support for the delivery of data across a range of latency requirements to include streaming, real-time, and event-driven delivery. Customers are likely to see a significant return on investment by deploying our joint solution."


Syncsort and Attunity are leaders in their respective fields. DMExpress is the 'world's fastest' data integration software. The only solution to break the 1 GB per second barrier, DMExpress extracted, transformed, and loaded 5.4 TB of data at an unprecedented rate of 1.6 GB per second. Deployed on highly cost-efficient HP c7000 Blade servers, the accomplishment not only set a performance record, but a new cost standard as well. Attunity is a pioneer and a leading pure-play provider of CDC for data integration. Available for many data sources ranging from the leading relational databases including Oracle and SQL Server to legacy sources on the mainframe, Attunity Stream provides low impact, log-based change data capture that supports efficient mini batch, micro-batch and real-time data integration.


"We are excited to partner with Syncsort to promote a solution that maximizes return on investment and delivers data in real time," said Mel Passarelli, VP Sales and Operations at Attunity. "By combining two 'best of breed' solutions, this partnership provides a cost effective real-time data integration solution that enables organizations to have the right information available at the right time, which is key to optimizing business operations and satisfying customer expectations."


The joint solution is available for a variety of data sources including Microsoft SQL Server, Oracle and mainframe sources. The combination of DMExpress and Attunity offers a significant value proposition for customers seeking real-time data integration, data synchronization and business intelligence.
