According to Ingres, as a result of this partnership, joint customers will benefit from access to Ingres Database, an enterprise grade open source database, coupled with Simplexo’s ability to securely search all enterprise information.

Ingres Database supports applications and helps manage enterprise applications of various companies. Core Ingres technology forms the foundation for both Ingres Database as well as other RDBMS systems.

By joining forces with Ingres, the real-time enterprise search capability of Simplexo Enterprise will complement the Ingres IceBreaker BI Appliance, which delivers all an organization’s business intelligence needs, Ingres added. The partnership with Simplexo also further compliments the current partnerships Ingres has in place with JasperSoft in business intelligence and Alfresco in content management.

Roger Burkhardt, president and CEO of Ingres, said: Simplexo and Ingres demonstrate the superior innovation and reduced costs of the open source model. This partnership delivers extraordinary results with a simple low cost approach. We believe the search capabilities that Simplexo offers will generate great interest, especially among our many customers in the financial sector. Simplexo addresses critical business requirements, such as compliance and risk management, with a low cost approach that is simple to implement and operate.
