Web Balanced Warehouse
Evolving regulations. Given today’s business challenges, organizations of all sizes must have the ability to make quick, informed decisions just to keep up with the competition. And the more fact-based information that’s available, the greater the chance that strategic moves will pay off. Unfortunately, even midsize businesses often have an array of unintegrated legacy systems, desktops, servers and intranets. And with data collected in different ways across organizations, it’s often difficult for business leaders and frontline employees alike to easily access the information they need to make decisions or even accurately answer basic customer questions. Offsetting these challenges requires a fresh approach.
The IBM Balanced Warehouse C1000 offering combines everything you need to integrate and maintain multiple, scattered information resources in a central, accessible repository of company-wide data—or data warehouse. The complete data warehouse and reporting solution includes IBM DB2® Warehouse Starter Edition software, Crystal Reports Server from Business Objects and IBM hardware in a preintegrated, pretested configuration that is easy to install and maintain.
