Aperio CI and Netezza Partner for Telecommunications Data Management

Aperio CI, which has been delivering customer usage and pricing analytics solutions since 1990, has announced that it will be teaming with Netezza, a specialist in data warehouse appliances, to offer a series of solutions available on the Netezza (News - Alert) TwinFin data warehouse appliance.

The first of these will be Pricing Genie, a powerful visual tool for modeling, testing and launching new plans and managing them in one central location. This tool equips carriers with valuable and precise information to verify the impact of internal and competitive pricing structures within the marketplace.

 

"Aperio CI’s (News - Alert) suite of solutions coupled with the Netezza TwinFin appliance allows telecommunication providers and operators to further reduce SLA times, increase actionable information from larger data sets and speed customer deployments and ROI," said John Gillespie, vice president and general manager, global telecommunications at Netezza, in a release.

 

The new series of solutions available on the Netezza TwinFin data warehouse appliance are designed to address the data challenges facing large telecommunications companies today while providing the scalability necessary to meet future requirements. The Netezza TwinFin system is the fourth generation Netezza appliance that integrates database, server and storage into a single, easy to manage system.

 

"The power of Netezza’s platform is the perfect complement to our Genie suite of Business Intelligence tools for telecommunications operators," said Duffy Mich, chief executive officer of Aperio CI.

 

Headquartered in Marlborough, Mass., Netezza’s technology is said to enable organizations to process large amounts of captured data at high speed, providing a significant competitive and operational advantage in today’s data-intensive industries, including digital media, energy, financial services, government, health and life sciences, retail and telecommunications. Netezza’s TwinFin appliance consists of Netezza software running on a configuration of commercially available, industry standard blade servers.
