Talend, the first provider of open source data integration software,
today announced that Pipeline Software, the SAP Integration Experts, has
signed a strategic partnership within the Talend Alliance Program. Under
the terms of the agreement, the optimized interoperability between
Talend's open source data integration technologies and Pipeline Software’s
Transporter solution will allow customers to integrate data between SAP
and other business-critical applications.
SAP is a highly successful but large, unique and complex system that
presents many challenges to companies wishing to integrate it with other
systems. Talend has joined forces with Pipeline Software to ease the
burden of complicated data-related tasks involving information residing
within enterprise SAP applications. The partnership provides SAP
customers with a combination of Talend's best-of-breed data integration
solutions - Talend Open Studio and Talend Integration Suite - and
Pipeline Software's industry proven SAP certified Transporter Connector
Studio, extensive service and consulting expertise, and additional tools
to address their data integration needs and successfully deploy and
leverage data within an SAP environment.
“Talend offers an impressive solution with
exceptional product functionality and customer support,”
said Raju Patel, chief technology officer of Pipeline Software. “We
are excited about our collaboration with Talend. The combined Talend and
Pipeline solution provides a compelling offering for new customers
needing to deploy complex SAP data integration projects quickly,
efficiently and cost-effectively. Our existing customers with projects
requiring additional data extraction and transformation would also
benefit from adding the Talend solution.”
“Talend relies greatly on the exceptional
feedback of our user community, and by partnering with Pipeline, we are
addressing the need for simplified SAP integration that our customers
require,” said Vincent Pineau, Talend's vice
president and general manager Americas. “This
partnership speaks to the relevancy, scalability and compatibility of
Talend’s open source data integration
offerings. We look forward to working with the Pipeline team, to help
customers tackle large enterprise data projects.”
Talend first announced its formal partner program, the Talend Alliance
Program, back in October 2007. Through the program, Talend is giving
systems integrators, consulting firms and other IT service providers the
flexible, easy-to-use platform they require to build cost-effective yet
higher-margin solutions for their customers. As a Talend Gold Partner,
Pipeline receives technical, sales and marketing support from Talend on
the data integration projects the company runs on behalf of its clients.
