TIBCO Launches New Spotfire Analytics Offering on AWS Marketplace

PALO ALTO, Calif., Nov. 12 — TIBCO Software Inc. announced today a new offering on AWS Marketplace, TIBCO Spotfire for AWS. Users will now be able to use Spotfire data visualization and dashboards technology on an hourly, pay-as-you-go basis for Amazon Relational Database Service (Amazon RDS), Redshift and more.

Spotfire for AWS provides technology professionals with easy access to the Spotfire server-side components. The installation and launch process is automated so that technologists can easily evaluate how the Spotfire server-side components can be configured for proof-of-concepts and ad hoc projects with Spotfire Server and Web Player.

“As the market shifts gear, we see a series of tipping points in 2014 that will accelerate adoption, but it may come from a different place,” said Dan Sommer, research director, Gartner. “These tipping points are that half of BI and analytics spend will be business driven, half of new license spend will be driven by data discovery requirements, and half of organizations will consider deploying BI in the cloud, at least tactically.”

“Expanding the TIBCO Analytics offering on AWS Marketplace to include Spotfire puts the power of an analytics and data visualization leader2within easy reach of Amazon Redshift customers, starting at less than one dollar per hour,” said Karl Van den Bergh, vice president, Product and Customer Success, TIBCO Analytics.

“We are excited that the Jaspersoft platform has been successfully received on AWS Marketplace by embracing the hourly pay-as-you-go model, and we are happy to have Spotfire as a new offering,” said Terry Hanold, vice president, AWS Platform and Marketplace, Amazon Web Services, Inc.
