Millersoft's Pentaho Story
The modern Millersoft story began with Pentaho. We added custom changes to the amazing Mondrian Open Source OLAP Engine and these were spotted by Skype in Estonia. They used Mondrian to analyse monster transaction volumes stored within their Greenplum database. Our changes were adopted by Pentaho and they asked us to partner in Europe with them. We supported Skype, and other key client accounts, until the Hitachi buyout.
That’s how Millersoft expanded, we planted one Open Source seed and it all grew from there. Although we are no longer a partner, we retain deep and practical experience with the Pentaho suite. We can still deliver end-to-end data integration and business intelligence solutions. Our expertise covers both the Pentaho Data Integration (PDI) tool and Pentaho Business Analytics, helping organizations streamline their data pipelines, transform raw data into actionable insights, and support informed decision-making.
We also assist customers moving from Pentaho to more cloud focused alternatives. We love working with Apache Hope, the successor to PDI, and can help customers to migrate. We are also knowledgeable with the Alteryx data integration tool in financial environments.
