NETEZZA ANNOUNCES SUPPORT FOR ORACLE BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE PACKAGED APPLICATION

Company Continues to Bolster its Fit into the Business Intelligence Ecosystem via Compatibility with OBI EE and Associated Packaged Analytic Application Components

MARLBOROUGH, Mass., — September 2, 2009 — Netezza Corporation (NYSE: NZ), the global leader in data warehouse and analytic appliances, continues to fulfill its strategy to certify with numerous Oracle applications across the spectrum of data integration, data analysis and business intelligence/reporting.

The Oracle Business Intelligence Packaged Application is made up of components that were formerly available from Siebel Systems as Siebel Business Analytics Applications, augmented with new capabilities and third party applications. Netezza’s support of this packaged application was enabled via collaboration with Oracle on interoperability with its components, including Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBI EE), Data Warehouse Administration Console (DAC), Business Analytics Warehouse (BAW) and a third party data integration engine.

“Oracle is clearly the de facto standard in many large organizations and our strategy has always been to work with – not disrupt – our customers’ environments,” said Jim Baum, president and CEO of Netezza. “We are collaborating with Oracle to develop technology that will facilitate the connectivity and interoperability between our respective products, allowing organizations that have chosen to standardize on Oracle to benefit from Netezza technology in a much more transparent way. Our support for OBI EE is the major deliverable in our compatibility roadmap.”

From the beginning, Netezza has recognized and embraced the importance of building systems that are enterprise ready and have proven to the industry that as Netezza’s product family grows – along with its leadership for price performance – so has Netezza’s breadth and depth of integration with the technologies that run today’s enterprises. This tradition continues with the recent introduction of the new Netezza® TwinFin™ appliance and the new Oracle certifications announced today. Netezza’s unique ease of use and groundbreaking performance make it the perfect complement to existing enterprise technologies including those from Oracle.
