SANTA CLARA, CA - November 11, 2002 - IAF Software, Inc., a leading
business intelligence solutions provider, today announced the
immediate availability of IAF Vista(TM), a brand-new Business
Intelligence (BI) tool designed exclusively to support the powerful
new OLAP capabilities in Oracle9i Database Release 2. IAF Vista
allows companies to put corporate data to practical use by enabling
business users to quickly and easily access information stored
in OracleR databases.
IAF Vista is an easy-to-use BI application tool that allows business
users to create OLAP reports by wizard, without support from corporate
IT staff. By replacing complex BI tools, IAF Vista enables business
users to easily share data analysis know-how and company information.
To meet the needs of both IT and business users, IAF Vista has
two versions -- a "Java-client version" which is used for complex
business intelligence functions and an "HTML-client version" which
enables simple queries and OLAP analysis from any Web browser.
Both versions are developed using Oracle9i JDeveloper plus Oracle9i
Business Intelligence Beans to extend the Oracle9i OLAP environment.
