MONTREAL, July 5, 2011 -
SAND Technology Inc. (OTCBB: SNDTF.OB), provider of the world’s
most advanced column store database, today announced that SAND
Analytics has passed MicroStrategy’s comprehensive test suite,
certifying it as a supported database for the MicroStrategy
platform.
“SAND and MicroStrategy are the ideal combination for
enterprises that need to handle big data for big user populations,”
said Richard Grondin, CTO and VP of R&D and Deployment at SAND.
“SAND has worked with MicroStrategy for years, but official
certification means even greater support for MicroStrategy’s large
end-user BI community, and industry leading integrated reporting,
analysis, and monitoring software. In return, SAND’s massive,
concurrent user scalability and the ability to efficiently drill
down to detail data and execute large summarization, perfectly fits
MicroStrategy environments.”
“With social data, machine data, and structured data being an
increasing competitive requirement for Enterprise, you need an
analytic database that can support multiple new data types,” said
Mike Pilcher, Chief Operating Officer of SAND. “Further, that
database needs to scale to support everyone in the enterprise -
thousands to tens of thousands of concurrent users - with tools to
mine the data. Together, SAND and MicroStrategy customers get
best-of-breed reporting and analytics, at lower cost, with less
effort, and scalability unmatched by any other solution.”
“We are pleased with SAND’s official certification as a
MicroStrategy partner,” said Sanju Bansal, MicroStrategy Chief
Operating Officer. “MicroStrategy’s high performance BI platform
helps companies with some of the largest data volumes in the world
gain valuable insights and make informed business decisions.”
