HP gets behind Neoview

HP wants the world to know it's serious about business intelligence (BI) and that it's standing behind Neoview as a cornerstone of its future in that business, reports Intelligent Enterprise.

HP has reorganised the formerly separate Neoview product organisation and the BI services group that had its roots in the acquired Knightsbridge consulting business.

HP Business Intelligence Solutions is the newly unified, worldwide business dedicated to BI and data warehousing. To underscore its importance to the company, HP has put executive Kristina Robinson in charge.

Industry luminary Philip Howard of UK-based Bloor Research has evaluated Composite Discovery and concluded it serves a genuine need not served by other technologies, and is complementary to BI and data integration technologies, reports B-Eye Network.

Howard's findings are published as an In-Detail Report and excerpted in Pervasive BI and Information Discovery, an on-demand webinar that looks at the industry trends associated with discovery of data and data relationships.

“We are impressed with Composite Discovery; it serves a genuine need, yet we know of no other vendor that offers such capability,” Howard concludes in his In-Detail Report executive summary.

St Mary's Hospital Centre, a McGill University Teaching Hospital, has selected the Virtuo Financial and Materials Management and Virtuo Business Intelligence suites by MediSolution, a provider of enterprise resource planning solutions and specialised blood bank software, says MSNBC.

The integrated solution will be implemented at St Mary's within the next six months.

Specifically designed for the healthcare sector and other service organisations, the Virtuo Financial Management Suite is a solution for organisations requiring a comprehensive, integrated and decentralised financial and procurement system.
