Listen up 7 Aug ’09

We have been busy podcasting with the guys from BeyeNETWORK.  Shaun and the team do a fantastic job of putting together podcasts - the production value is always high, and their turnaround time is phenomenal.

You can hear Michael Whitehead, WhereScape Founder and CEO, talk with Claudia Imhoff from the Pacific Northwest BI Summit 2009.  The subject of this discussion is the emerging category of rapid data warehouse development. This one was a challenge - inside while at a beautiful location with the temperature over 100.

A week later Mark Budzinski, VP and General Manager of US Operations spoke with the BeyeNETWORK team from TDWI in San Diego.  He provides an update on Version 6 as well as his perspective on the movement toward building specialized marts, reporting and analytical systems off of enterprise data warehouses to respond to pressing business needs.

Next up…we are going multimedia with a video shot from the deck at the Weasku Inn during the Pacific Northwest BI Summit.  We will post it once the BeyeNETWORK team have done their magic with it.

If you are passing through San Diego, California or Sydney, Australia you can check out WhereScape at TDWI events.

WhereScape is exhibiting at the TDWI World Conference in San Diego from August 2-7.  Showing unprecedented support for TDWI, we are also taking part in the Australia TDWI chapter meeting on August 4th in Sydney, Australia.  At this meeting WhereScape CEO and Founder Michael Whitehead will be on a panel discussing ETL tools.  This should be fun as the other panelists are the traditional ETL vendors.
