KUAI Radio AM 720, (Kauai, Hawaii), Hawaii-based, software development consulting company, Rare & Dear, has been named a partner to help market Oracle's new data warehouse offering, Data Mart Suite. The Data Mart Suite contains tools to facilitate Designing, Building, Populating, Using and Managing a Data Mart or small Data Warehouse. Rare & Dear is the only Oracle Partner in the state of Hawaii and the Pacific Rim authorized to distribute this integrated set of products and services. A Data Warehouse combines data from multiple different internal or external sources into a single database to facilitate viewing of summaries, comparisons, trends, or exceptions. The objective of a data warehousing system is to enable an end user to make better informed business decisions by providing them with easy access to integrated, consistent, accurate and timely information that is stored in a Data Warehouse. Superior business decisions have the potential to have a far greater impact on an organization's current and future bottom line than could ever be achieved with earlier data processing applications. Data Warehousing empowers decision makers by leveraging legacy data, client/server technologies, and emerging trends in parallel processing architecture and internet technologies. Rare & Dear was founded in 1994 by Ned Dana, president and principal consultant, who has more than 20 years of experience in the computer industry. Rare & Dear's relationship with Oracle goes back to 1981 when Dana was hired by Oracle (employee # 17) as senior technical staff on the development team creating the first portable database administration system for the company. |
