Lyzasoft Introduces Collaborative Analytics for the EnterpriseDENVER --(Business Wire)-- Lyzasoft today introduced the Lyza Commons, an enterprise collaboration server that enables business analysts to share data and reports with trusted peers through a user-driven publishing model. The transparent development environment facilitates this sharing, while allowing IT to assimilate innovation for rapid prototyping, functional requirements design, and production reporting and business intelligence. "There is a growing disconnect between business analysts who often operate outside the data warehousing environment to achieve their objectives, and the IT organization which strives to provide these analysts an integrated, centralized platform for reporting and analysis," said Dr. Barry Devlin, among the foremost authorities on business insight and data warehousing. "Lyza Commons attempts to help close that division, delivering some of the real functionality needed to allow business analysts to collaborate more closely and to enable IT to harvest the fruits of their innovation for the wider user community." Lyza Commons enables IT organizations to reduce the volume of ad hoc query requests by empowering users with intuitive tools in a federated environment. Analytic workflows can be traced to map all of the upstream lineages to determine how certain numbers and calculations were derived. And, quality information can be quickly tested and then migrated to production environments for broader, managed distribution. "Analytical insight achieves maximum impact in a culture that encourages information sharing," said Lyzasoft CEO Scott Davis. "Lyza Commons provides a mechanism to share and trace data among a community of analysts - reusing data and extending their analyses seamlessly. It provides a workgroup platform that fits the way analysts work and think while also providing the transparency and manageability of an enterprise information flow," Davis said. Pricing and Availability Lyza Commons runs on Microsoft (News - Alert) Windows and is available immediately as part of two packaged workgroup bundles.
