NEW YORK, NY--(Marketwire - October 12, 2010) - Hadoop World - Pentaho Corporation, the open

Impetus Technologies, an award-winning software product engineering and professional services
company, serving customers ranging from aggressive startups to large technology companies, to

The partnership coincides with the release of Pentaho for Hadoop, the first complete, end-to-end data

Impetus' HPC 360 degree approach offers strategies to solve complex computing and big data
challenges. Impetus creates proof of concepts (POCs) to assess HPC fitment and provides consultancy
services for HPC optimization, tuning and deployments on premise or in the Cloud.
Pentaho and Impetus will work closely together to expedite the adoption process of Hadoop and
Pentaho technologies, helping enterprises to move quickly from proof-of-concept and evaluation
projects to pilot and full-production deployments. The companies will also engage in joint marketing
activities to further drive awareness and adoption of Pentaho and Impetus technology and services
