Sybase Inc was fleshing out its data warehousing story at DB/Expo earlier this month. First, it is getting Informatica Inc’s OpenBridge data extraction and ‘scrubbing’ software up under its Warehouse Works framework, which transforms legacy data for use in a Sybase database accessed from a graphical interface. OpenBridge is $6,500 per server. Sybase has gone to Austin, Texas-based Evolutionary Technologies Inc for its Extract tools, which suck SAP AS and other mainframe data into Sybase. The two are working to put Evolutionary Technologies’s Data System Library up on the database. Meantime, Carleton Corp is putting the application programming interfaces to its Passport data warehouse development and maintenance software, up on Sybase. Sybase SQL Server 10 is now in beta test under UnixWare 2.0.
