FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Truviso Contributes PostgreSQL Enhancements to
Open Source Community

Truviso and Command Prompt Collaborate on Enhanced Features

FOSTER CITY, Calif., April 18, 2008 - As part of its commitment to the open
source community, Truviso, a leading provider of next-generation business
intelligence solutions, today announced that it has completed an enhancement
to the PostgreSQL open source database system that further extends its
suitability for streaming data analysis. Truviso also announced it will
contribute this enhancement to the PostgreSQL community, reinforcing the
company's foundational tenet of building upon and sharing mutually
beneficial improvements to open source code with the PostgreSQL community.

"The entire PostgreSQL community benefits from the rapid innovation that
occurs when individuals collaborate to solve technical challenges," said
Neil Conway, senior software engineer at Truviso and a major developer in
the PostgreSQL community. "This project demonstrates the power of the
PostgreSQL ecosystem. The need for this feature has been recognized for some
time, but it took a collaborative effort to marshal the significant
resources required to address it. Giving back what we have developed leads
to a stronger foundation on which others can build."

Truviso's solution leverages PostgreSQL technology to provide
high-performance, ultra-low-latency continuous data analysis. The new
feature enhances PostgreSQL's performance for extremely long-running queries
and transactions, an increasingly important capability for many
applications. Implementing this new, sophisticated functionality required a
dedicated effort from software engineers at Truviso and Command Prompt, a
PostgreSQL consulting firm. The Truviso-sponsored improvements are expected
to be included in the next release of PostgreSQL, scheduled for early 2009.

"Today, leveraging open source 'building blocks' is the only viable strategy
for developing enterprise-class software," said Michael Franklin, Truviso
co-founder and a professor of computer science at the University of
California, Berkeley. "PostgreSQL is a prime example of the open source
community's ability to provide a proven foundation that yields a faster, far
more cost-effective development platform than is available with legacy,
commercial vendor options. When you combine these characteristics with the
continuous and rapid innovation from the open source ecosystem, the results
speak for themselves."

Truviso solutions combine continuous data analytics and real-time analysis
with an enterprise-class, open-source database. With full support for
industry-standard SQL, Truviso's product can simultaneously execute
thousands of concurrent queries across high-volume data sources for
zero-latency decision-making. Truviso's robust, scalable technology has been
proven by partners and customers in the high-volume, network-centric,
massively interconnected applications used by large web properties, media
providers, network security vendors, financial exchanges, and trading
houses.

"It is gratifying to work with companies like Truviso, who not only benefit
from PostgreSQL communities' advancements but also give back," said Joshua
Drake, Command Prompt founder and director of the U.S. PostgreSQL
Association. "Every new advance is important, whether it constitutes a major
new feature development or an incremental improvement, and every contributor
is welcome-from individual developers to global corporations."
