CubeRunner USA Announces GA of CubeRunner Product Suite
Over 80% of all CUBE processing failures are caused by factors outside of the Cognos PowerPlay environment
PHOENIX, AZ (PRWEB) October 16 2003--CubeRunner USA announces the general availability of the CubeRunner product. CubeRunner addresses the high failure rate experienced by Cognos customers when delivering business intelligence data by automating the back office maintenance functions associated with PowerPlay cubes.
Designed exclusively for Cognos PowerPlay customers, CubeRunner is changing the way administrators manage and control creation and deployment of business intelligence data to the end user community. Through CubeRunners Windows-based client, administrators specify the infrastructure requirements (e.g. paths, database sign-ons, Access Manager Credentials) for an individual or logical group of PowerPlay cubes. During the scheduled cube build process, CubeRunner dynamically inspects cube models for incorrect properties and, using the parameters established by the administrator, corrects the models on-the-fly, prior to Transformation processing. Using Transformer APIs, CubeRunner launches and controls the cube transformation process delivering unprecedented throughput.
Once cube models are successfully transformed into PowerCubes, the administrator schedules CubeRunner to automatically deploy the PowerCubes into the production environment. CubeRunners deployment features automatically disable and backup the previous PowerCube version, loads the new PowerCube into the production environment and enables the PowerCube for end user access in the Cognos business intelligence platform.
The traditional method of using scripts and macros for cube delivery is high maintenance and non-scalable, it compromises security policies and offers little in terms of error recovery and reliability.” said Greg King, visionary for the product. CubeRunner alleviates these concerns and provides administrators with complete control of all cube delivery processes from a centralized Windows or SQL/Server DTS client.”
With CubeRunner, Cognos administrators will no longer constantly monitor and react to failures caused by infrastructure complexity and policy compliance requirements. CubeRunner centralized administration is an efficient and simple solution to reduce operating costs and dependence on technical support personnel.
