Sybase Announces Real-Time Loading Solution for its Sybase IQ Analytics Server

New Offering Enables Real-Time Reporting for Enhanced Decision-Making Capabilities

DUBLIN, Calif. — Sybase®, Inc. (NYSE: SY), a leading provider of enterprise infrastructure and mobile software, today announced the availability of the Sybase® IQ Real-Time Loading Solution, a combined software and services offering to provide continuous loading of real-time data into the Sybase IQ analytics server. The new offering provides enterprises with the ability to utilize fresh data for greater insight by continuously loading transaction changes, which enables real-time reporting and decision-making.

“This solution is intended to take organizations beyond intermittent batch loading to continuous loading of operational database changes,” said Dan Lahl, Director of Sybase Intelligent Enterprise Solutions. “With the Sybase IQ Real-Time Loading Solution, customers can make better informed business decisions at any time—based on the freshest information.”

Spice Telecom is one of many companies using this solution to meet the challenge of analyzing in real time ever-growing data volumes in a very competitive market. Spice Telecom adds a new customer every second of every business day. To win in this type of environment requires rich, real-time business intelligence capability. Spice Telecom utilizes ASE as a staging repository, in conjunction with Replication Server and PowerDesigner, to load external data sources in real-time into Sybase IQ. This new real-time analytics capability has enabled Spice Telecom to analyze trends and ask the “what if” questions that were previously out of reach. With Sybase IQ replacing an OLTP system, load windows have shortened from hours to minutes, and the Real-Time Loading Solution has increased both data freshness and quality. “I am happy to say the Sybase environment actually did wonders for us,” said Sanjay Srivastava, IT General Manager for Spice Telecom.
