DATA ADVANTAGE GROUP ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR POPKIN SYSTEM ARCHITECT AND MICROSTRATEGY

Two new additions expand MetaCenter’s support to include leading products in the enterprise modeling and business intelligence spaces

SAN FRANCISCO, CA – June 17, 2004 – Reaffirming its commient to expanding its coverage of supported applications by its flagship product, MetaCenter and its leadership in the information resource management market, Data Advantage Group today announced the general availability of two additional ActiveLinx™ products – Popkin System Architect and MicroStrategy.

After debuting to an excited audience at the 2004 DAMA Conference, Data Advantage Group has continued to innovate with MetaCenter 3.1, the only third-generation enterprise meta data management platform designed specifically for the distributed real-time enterprise.

MetaCenter provides a single window into an information systems environment unlocking the contextual and relational information stored in transactional, business intelligence, database, data integration, data quality and data modeling applications. MetaCenter easily integrates this information with a platform for creating a best practice based corporate standards knowledge base. Business requirements, rules and standards can be documented, audited and seamlessly tied to the technical data underlying their execution. This empowers technical and business users to collaborate during analysis and efficiently manage the knowledge represented in corporate information systems. Organizations benefit through dramatic improvements in employee productivity, elimination of duplicative work, institutionalization of knowledge, documentation of standards and a substantial reduction in operational risk.

Dan Soschin, customer relations manager explains, “With the release of the MicroStrategy ActiveLinx, users of this leading business intelligence product line can now directly extend and integrate their reports with existing documentation, business rules and their IT framework components from other points in their information system. The end result is a seamless integration where users can run a report in MicroStrategy and access additional information about their systems. Additionally, users will gain more insight into the relationship and meaning of their reports and the information which they contain.” Mr. Soschin adds, “With the addition of Popkin System Architect, the MetaCenter ActiveLinx suite of supported products is expanded even further providing advanced support for data modelers.”
