MARVELit, a Leading Open Source Business Intelligence Vendor, to Integrate and Support IBM's WebSphere Application Server Community Edition

MARVELit, Inc., a leading open source business intelligence company based in San Diego, today announced its support for IBM's WebSphere Application Server Community Edition for new and existing customers of MARVELit's OpenReports Portal business intelligence (BI) suite of applications and services.

MARVELit is responding to client needs to leverage the benefits of open source solutions while receiving strong support and services from a trusted IT vendor. "Small and medium-size businesses need BI solutions, but existing products and services are just too expensive and complex," said Rick Mortensen, founder and chief executive officer for MARVELit. "Using the OpenReports Portal business intelligence suite with IBM support allows our customers to tap into the low cost entry of open source technology to quickly develop and deploy business intelligence services, and then migrate to WebSphere software as business needs expand."

Unlike other open source projects and commercial BI products that require additional development staff to assemble, customize and maintain -- MARVELit's OpenReports Portal application combines the best of Java-based open source projects into a readily available solution. The result is an affordable BI solution that includes executive dashboards with proactive alerting, along with report distribution and scheduling.

OpenReports, available at http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/oreports, is among the most popular open source business intelligence solutions, with an active community of users and supporters, and over 75,000 downloads. MARVELit's OpenReports Portal is available at http://www.marvelit.com.

For more information on MARVELit products and services call 858-485-6617 or toll-free at 877-485-4854. Visit marvelit.com or email sales@marvelit.com.
