Now-defunct software company pioneered the development of exploration database technology.
BARCELONA, SPAIN, 24 June 2007—illuminate Solutions (http://www.i-lluminate.com), pioneer of correlation database management technology for automatically designing and building data warehouses and data marts, today announced that the company has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire the intellectual property and assets of Synera Systems, a software company no longer in business.
"This is an important step in securing legal rights to intellectual property that can be used as some of the underpinnings of illuminate’s correlation database engine and data access tool suite," stated Anton Torrents, illuminate's chief executive officer.

About illuminate Solutions,
S.L.
illuminate Solutions, headquartered in Barcelona, Spain,
is the pioneer of the correlation DBMS (CDBMS) for building
data-driven data warehouses. The CDBMS is a radical departure
from how information management infrastructures are built
and accessed. By automatically creating a data-generated schema during the raw data loading process, the need
for pre-design is virtually eliminated. A CDBMS data
warehouse is a fraction of the size of others due to
its unique value-based storage™ (VBS) model, which
indexes 100 percent of the raw data on-the-fly during
the loading process and stores each unique data value
only once. A CDBMS eliminates the trade-off between performance
and flexibility that so often frustrates IT and business
users alike, and dramatically lowers the time/cost of
data warehouse deployment and management.
illiminate’s products include
iLuminate, its CDBMS engine, and a full tool suite for
accessing the data warehouse: iCorrelate, for exploration;
and iAnalyze, for light analytics, dashboards and geographic
mapping. The company also offers the iLuminate SDK to
qualified customers free of charge.
illuminate sells its products exclusively
through IT consulting services firms and management consulting
companies in the Americas. In Europe, its products are
sold direct and through a partner network. European customers
include BBVA, Bon Preu Group, ZURICH, infojobs
and RORI among others.
