Cognos Ties up with Similarity Systems

With data quality being a top priority for business intelligence professionals, the tie-up between Athanor from Similarity Systems and Cognos 8 from BI corporation Cognos seems to make perfect sense. Athanor will provide users methods to monitor data quality and deal with data problems at their source. Data quality metrics from Similarity Systems can be scrutinized using Cognos 8. Business Intelligence Pipeline reports:

Data quality remains a serious challenge for many BI practitioners. Most surveys of business intelligence professionals find poor data to be a top impediment to the generation of meaningful analytics.

It is funny how these guys are not even up to par in terms of data integration. A small tech company up in Boston surpasses them on this mark, which is really sad. I took a look at eReportal from Varden Technologies and they were very interesting. Just another case of the little guy clearing the pathway for the larger (often time blind guy). You guys should write about eReportal. I think the site is www.ereportal.com
