They all can offer a viable alternative that dramatically reduces costs and mitigate risk, without compromising on performance availability and supportability.

The Ingres Icebreaker Business Intelligence (BI) Appliance is an innovative business intelligence solution that is robust, comprehensive, and cost effective for organizations seeking to become more competitive, respond quickly to market demand, and ultimately impact the bottom line. Conventional BI implementations can be costly, often with limited returns. For that reason, organizations looking for an alternative solution to costly, traditional approaches can use Ingres Icebreaker BI Appliance to address decision making challenges.

Tough economic times call for a new approach to software development and demand that you find a better, faster, and more affordable way to develop new applications. Open source is the answer - much faster time to value, all the benefits of an on-demand business model, and speed of innovation. Organizations are seeing big advantages to using open source technology, with its collaborative development and affordable business model. There is a big contrast between open source and the proprietary technology of the past. Companies need help understanding when open source is a better solution than traditional closed technology.
