“Vlamis Software is very excited to partner with Simba to sell MDX Provider for Oracle OLAP,” said Dan Vlamis, President of Vlamis Software Solutions, Inc. “In addition to our work with Oracle Business Intelligence, we work a lot with Oracle OLAP cubes.

We foresee great synergies and added customer value from the Vlamis – Simba partnership.”
