On Tuesday, TIBCO Software announced that more than 1,000 active customers have subscribed to the “pay-as-you-go” TIBCO Jaspersoft for AWS. The company also announced the general availability of its newly released Jaspersoft 5.6 on Amazon Web Services Marketplace.
“Jaspersoft 5.6′s improved Big Data capabilities, increased performance and Visualize.js JavaScript API, combined with the 1,000-customer milestone, further solidifies Jaspersoft as a leading cloud-based BI suite on AWS Marketplace,” the company said in a statement. “In addition, customers can benefit from virtualized blending of relational and Big Data sources such as MongoDB, Hadoop and Cassandra, as well as more powerful analytic calculations and visualizations.”
The growing popularity of pay-by-the-hour BI tools shows a shift in the market, and is indeed a significant factor contributing to the growth of Jaspersoft for AWS. Rather than a company establishing its own servers, databases, ETL and BI tools, the cloud offers the option of renting these as a service. It appeals to large and small organizations alike, not only because of the reasonably low pricing plans, but also because it adds the benefit of being scalable.
“Adding more than 1,000 customers in little over a year, we have disrupted the Business Intelligence market,” said Karl Van den Bergh, vice president, product and customer success, TIBCO Jaspersoft. “Customers love our Cloud BI service because they get a full reporting and analytics suite for just cents per hour that they can deploy in minutes.”
Jaspersoft for AWS starts at less than a dollar per hour with no extra data or user charges.
