WizSoft, Inc. manufacturer of WizRule for Windows, a database auditing and
database mining tool, recently announced it has signed developer agreements
with IBM. WizSoft is enrolled in IBM's Worldwide Developer Solutions Program,
which includes Developer Assistance Programs and Solutions Guides for the OS/2
Warp and AIX platforms and the DB2 Database to which WizSoft is porting and
interfacing its products. In addition to this relationship, WizSoft's WizRule
for Windows has been tested and approved to carry the "Ready for OS/2 Warp -
NSTL Tested" seal.
According to H.R. Satishchandra, WizSoft Inc. vice president of Operations,
this relationship with IBM provides even greater exposure in the open
client/server database market. "We are pleased to announce our participation
in IBM's developer programs because it offers our database tools to a much
larger market, and enables us to take advantage of IBM's strong developer
marketing programs."
WizRule: is based on a patent-pending mathematical algorithm that uses rule
induction to identify rules and rule exceptions in databases. Using ODBC
drivers WizRule operates on all popular databases.
The value of rule induction algorithms is not simply in auditing the contents
of databases. The algorithm also enables users to conduct data mining and find
unique relationships among data fields that yield important decision support
information.
WizSoft Inc. is the North American marketing, sales and sales support division
of WizSoft Ltd., an Israeli software manufacturer and distributor. WizRule for
Windows is the first of a line of database tools developed for the growing
database mining and warehousing markets.
