PALO ALTO, Calif. — (BUSINESS WIRE) — September 8, 2009 — HP (NYSE: HPQ) and Informatica today announced a new portfolio of integrated business intelligence solutions that help customers accelerate business decisions by giving them access to more timely and accurate information.

These offerings combine Informatica’s data integration capabilities with the HP Neoview enterprise data warehouse platform as well as HP’s business intelligence strategic consulting and implementation services.
