MESSAGE FROM THE CEO
 
 
Dear Valued Customers, Partners and Fans of Attunity,

Over the last few years, demand for business intelligence (BI) grew rapidly and continues to be a top priority for both business and IT leaders operating in today’s economic climate. More and more, BI has become essential to sense and respond to changing market conditions, improve operational efficiencies and increase revenues.
 
Focusing on provisioning data for BI, we at Attunity have listened and worked closely with our customers to understand their objectives. I want to take this opportunity to share with you three important trends that we have observed. First, BI is becoming ubiquitous. It’s required by everyone throughout the organization and therefore needs to be seamlessly accessible whenever and wherever it’s needed. Second, real-time BI has become a key requirement as BI permeates daily operations and business processes. And third, self-service BI, made possible by such applications as Microsoft PowerPivot, has emerged as a means to bring BI to the masses while reducing the load on the IT organization.
 
We have further learned that addressing these trends requires making operational data available for BI in real-time, across a range of databases and platforms. Encouraged by our customers demand, we focused on bringing to market high performance data integration products for many data sources, as well as real-time data replication solutions that offload data from production systems to reduce impact and increase availability.
 
Read on to learn about our latest product innovations and customer successes as we continue to focus on extending our leadership and providing you with the tools you need to grow your business and attune it to changing business needs. We welcome your feedback, suggestions and partnership.

 
Fondly,
Shimon Alon, CEO

Attunity SQL Server-CDC For SSIS

Recently recognized as a "Best of TechEd" Award finalist, and the only data replication product fully integrated with Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS), Attunity SQL Server-CDC for SSIS is a cost-effective, rapid and complete solution for enabling real-time data integration and Business Intelligence. By leveraging log-based change-data-capture (CDC) technology, the product enables incremental or continuous replication for efficient and frequent data movement, with minimal impact on the source database servers.
FEATURED SOLUTION
  
 

 
 
Provisioning Data for PowerPivot to Enable Self-service BI
 
Microsoft PowerPivot, the popular new technology released with Microsoft SQL Server® 2008 R2, is a game changer for the BI Market. With it, business users are empowered with self-managed BI capabilities and no longer need to rely on IT resources. To capitalize on PowerPivot’s ability to handle millions of rows of data from a variety of sources, users need seamless, scalable, and fast connectivity, primarily to common data sources such as Oracle. To that end, Attunity now introduces the high-performance Attunity PowerPivot Connector for Oracle, as well as a suite of OLEDB connectors to many other data sources. Furthermore, Attunity offers a solution for reducing impact on production databases by offloading data leveraging CDC and replication technologies.
