Infoglide Software and Pervasive Software today announced agreement on a joint go-to-market strategy based on combining Infoglide’s recent release of Identity Resolution Engine (IRE) 2.2 with Pervasive DataRush.

“IRE 2.2 will be a big leap forward, and combining it with Pervasive DataRush layers our leading identity resolution software atop the fastest multi-processing software platform in the industry,” said Robert Barker, Infoglide’s chief marketing officer. “We’re excited about the new possibilities that are opening up for customers by closing the gap between explosively expanding corporate data stores and the untapped power of rapidly proliferating multi-core processors.”

Under the agreement, the two Austin-based companies will work together with initial customers who run their businesses by leveraging and mining multiple massive data sources. The combined technologies will make it possible to resolve inconsistencies and dramatically improve daily corporate decision-making based on that data.

“We deliberately chose a company with industry-leading identity resolution technology as our partner to address the most challenging problems in this space,” said Mike Bryars, Pervasive DataRush general manager. “Infoglide Software has demonstrated its ability to succeed in the toughest large-scale environments like airline passenger screening.”

The two companies plan to offer an integrated identity resolution solution for several application areas, including fraud detection, money laundering, national security and retail. Infoglide Software is a technology and services supplier to TSA’s Secure Flight program and has had recent successes in detecting workers’ compensation fraud and lottery retailer fraud for state and provincial governments. The Pervasive Software DataRush (PDR) engine is a revolutionary high-performance, embeddable software platform designed for the next generation of data-intensive processing and analytics.

“Gartner's 2009 survey of CIO priorities places use of information as a top five business priority. IT departments are under increasing pressure from the business to bring users solutions that help improve decision-making and deliver competitive advantage in an environment compounded by massive data volumes and an increasing number of data sources,” stated Gareth Herschel, research director at Gartner. “Consequently, the market is headed toward integrating analytics into the business processes and the need for new classes of analytics and the technologies and tools capable of making full use of existing data are coming into sharp focus as organizations evaluate the different analytics options available to enable better decisions and deliver key business value.”
