Yorkshire Building Society Group Selects QlikTech for Faster Reporting Capabilities
QlikTech, a provider of in-memory reporting and analysis solutions, announced that Yorkshire Building Society Group (YBS) has implemented QlikView, QlikTech's business intelligence (BI) tool. QlikView will be used to conduct analysis and issue share plan reports for the half a million accounts managed on behalf of many of the UK's leading companies. Yorkshire Building Society is one of the largest building societies with 131 branches and 75 agencies across the UK.

Due to the nature of the work carried out by Yorkshire Building Society and the significant volumes of data it handles, the organization needed a BI solution that would integrate seamlessly with its current systems, enabling it to operate smoothly without any disruptions. QlikView was selected after an evaluation of five of the leading BI vendors based on the fact that it was the fastest to implement and easiest to use, needing little preparation or training.

"We now have access to information that was previously unattainable with our old management information system," commented Dean Smith, share plan project manager at the Yorkshire Building Society. "QlikView has provided us with valuable insight and the ability to identify new trends. At first we were skeptical as to whether QlikTech could deliver on all that it promised because of the amount of data we handle, but it has met and exceeded our expectations. QlikView is constantly surprising me; we are always finding new uses for it." 商业智能
Concludes Dean, "QlikView has made a big difference to the way our staff work. For example, the sales team was always reactive with ad hoc reporting requests, but with QlikView the data is readily available. We can run up to 800 reports in a matter of seconds."

Leading Provider of On-Demand Collaboration Services, WebEx, Deploys Acopia ARX Systems
WebEx, the leading provider of on-demand applications for collaborative business on the web, has chosen to deploy Acopia ARX systems to support its data tiering initiatives. With more than 2 million registered users, WebEx is the global leader in on-demand applications for collaborative business on the web. These applications enhance high-touch business processes, such as sales and training, with efficient web-touch interactions.
Today, the ARX systems are being used by WebEx to move less active data from Tier 1 storage to a less expensive Tier 2 platform. This has allowed WebEx to reclaim high-performance storage resources and defer the purchase of additional Tier 1 disk storage. Instead, WebEx has been able to purchase significantly less expensive disk storage to support its Tier 2 data. 搜索引擎
"We were looking for a new approach to managing our storage resources," said Karloz Abad Santos, senior systems administrator, WebEx. "We were comfortable with Acopia's use of industry standard technology and support for both NFS and CIFS protocols. During our lab tests, we found Acopia offered excellent manageability and ease of use. Additionally, the ARX gives us the freedom to archive data to virtually any storage medium rather than being locked-in to a specific approach." 本文转载自数据挖掘研究院
Impac Mortgage Holdings, Inc. Selects Quantrix Modeler as Data Modeling Engine for iMAP
Impac Mortgage Holdings, Inc., a mortgage real estate investment trust (REIT) that acquires, originates, sells and securitizes various mortgages, has implemented Quantrix Modeler as the core data modeling engine for its market risk analysis platform, iMAP. Based in Irvine, California, Impac offers a broad spectrum of lending programs for the non-conforming borrower. 搜索引擎
iMAP is a decision support system that models and presents key risk indices in multiple dimensions to provide executive management, mortgage brokers, underwriters and lenders with a comprehensive analysis of state and metro markets. Users simply enter a zip code and are presented with comprehensive credit risk analysis for each particular mortgage. Quantrix Modeler is the desktop quantitative modeling solution that enables professionals to develop models in greater depth and from multiple perspectives. 搜索引擎
Traditional spreadsheets are error-prone and require unacceptable overheads to maintain formulas, so Impac chose Quantrix Modeler to develop the iMAP platform. Quantrix also enables Impac to perform rapid prototyping, a critical function for its business. 商业智能
"Our business is very competitive," says Carl Kim, senior enterprise risk analyst, Impac. "Quantrix Modeler enables us to provide improved data modeling accuracy and transparency for internal and external customers while allowing us to shape our corporate image as a leader in leveraging technology."
Quantrix Modeler incorporates an approach that separates the logic of a model from the structure, which allows users to create and use formulas outside the confines of the cell. Formulas are expressed in words rather than by cell coordinates so they are easy to understand, trace, and audit. Users can make changes, incorporate new dimensions, and view multiple scenarios dynamically without redesigning or reworking their model. In addition to the core application, Quantrix offers an API (QAPI) that allows third-party developers to embed Quantrix into their software applications. 本文转载自数据挖掘研究院
