DENVER, CO -- (MARKET WIRE) -- Jul 06, 2009 -- Phil Francisco, Vice President, Product Management and Marketing, Netezza, recently participated in an exclusive interview with Ron Powell and the BeyeNETWORK ( www.BeyeNETWORK.com). In this interview, Francisco, explains how Netezza Spatial simplifies the process of bringing together location and business data in a business intelligence environment allowing you to have access to all the data much faster, simpler and cheaper than with conventional systems.

"Analytics and location intelligence regardless of the industry can benefit greatly from the ability to link location information to vital business decision making for a variety of events ranging from retail purchasing patterns and customer demographics by store locations, to emergency call logs and hurricane patterns," says Phil Francisco, Vice President, Product Management and Marketing, Netezza. "When Netezza went to market with a geospatial solution we approached it with the same ideals as our high-performance data warehouse appliance -- that is, putting the processing power as close as we can to the storage with as much intelligence as possible, to deliver the same 10 to 100 times performance gains."

"Netezza Spatial presents a significant opportunity for organizations in nearly every industry to leverage location data as part of their everyday decision making to impact their business' bottom lines," says Ron Powell, Cofounder and Editorial Director of the BeyeNETWORK.
