SiSense Announces Native Support for Microsoft SQL Azure

Easily Incorporate Windows Azure and SQL Azure Cloud Data into Business Intelligence Dashboards, Reports and Analytic Applications

Palo Alto, CA, September 15, 2011 --(PR.com)-- SiSense, a provider of leading-edge business intelligence (BI) solutions, announced that its BI software now provides native access to cloud data hosted by Microsoft’s SQL Azure.

The Windows Azure and SQL Azure cloud are an ideal platform for cloud-hosted relational databases and applications. The platform provides high availability, fault tolerance, disaster recovery and easy scalability while customers only pay for the resources actually consumed.

“Companies from small startups to Fortune 500 companies are using Windows Azure and SQL Azure to host applications and data. Since SiSense caters to the same range of customers, it is only natural that we would ensure native connectivity to SQL Azure databases from our BI software,” said Elad Israeli, CEO of SiSense. “Powerful do-it-yourself BI dashboards, reports and analytic applications can now easily incorporate data hosted at SQL Azure.”

To incorporate SQL Azure data into a SiSense ElastiCube data model, the user simply needs to supply the SiSense software with the server name and credentials. From that point on, the user sees SQL Azure data, for all intents and purposes, as if it were a local SQL Server, Oracle or MySQL database.
