Customer: Mo’Mix Solutions

"The combination of Pentaho’s technology, with Mo’mix Solutions’ expertise, allows us to deliver open government and transparency solution at a cost effective price with a rapid return on investment."

Deployment Overview

Key Challenges

• Needed to embed a reporting and analytics tool with a SaaS delivery model.
• With core competency in the public sector and higher education, Mo’mix did not want to spend resources in building analytics. Instead, they wanted to apply their domain knowledge to a powerful, pre-built analytics platform.
• Wanted to give users ready access to enterprise information, ability to drill down and analyze their data within an easy to use solution.
• Given the variety of databases, application types and data source formats in use within public sector and higher education clients, Mo’mix required a solution that provided easy connectivity and integration with any data source.

Pentaho Solution

• Pentaho Data Integration as the primary ETL tool for source data extraction, transformation, and data loading to build the Performance Center data warehouse. PDI is also used as an intermediate data source for Pentaho Report Designer, where requirements include very complex compilation of data from multiple sources.
• SaaS delivery model, hosted on Amazon Web Services.
• Pentaho OEM Partnership and Powered by Pentaho program.
• Embedded Pentaho Business Analytics in the Mo’mix Performance Center – a business intelligence and reporting solution for Financial reporting, Projects/Grants, HR, Benefits, Payroll, and CAFR management, as well as External Transparency for public sector and higher education.
