SAN FRANCISCO -- Validates Embarcadero DT/Studio as a Leading Data Integration Solution

Embarcadero(R) Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq:EMBT), a provider of data lifecycle management solutions, today announced a strategic OEM relationship with TIBCO Software Inc. wherein Embarcadero's DT/Studio(R) software will serve as the extensible, standards-based, high-performance data integration engine behind TIBCO(R) DataExchange, an important extension to the TIBCO(R) BusinessWorks integration platform. The expanded relationship between the two companies enables TIBCO to both respond to strong customer demand for a proven extraction, transformation, and loading (ETL) solution, and to strengthen their leadership position in the integration and business process management markets. The deal further provides industry validation of Embarcadero DT/Studio as a robust yet cost-effective solution for every day data integration projects.

"TIBCO's customers rely on us to provide a broad range of integration and business process management products," said Ram Menon, senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, TIBCO Software Inc. "To address customers' data integration needs, we selected Embarcadero Technologies' DT/Studio which will assist us in offering a nimble data integration solution that complements our TIBCO BusinessWorks integration platform."

According to the terms of the agreement, TIBCO is granted a license to embed Embarcadero DT/Studio, as well as provide the DT/Studio and DT/Engine user interfaces in a manner that is transparent to end users. Embarcadero will support this relationship through product enhancements designed to further facilitate the embedding of the DT/Studio solution. TIBCO will manage the product release and will drive the marketing and sales of the TIBCO DataExchange product.

"In a world where real-time analytics require real-time data for accurate and relevant reporting, Embarcadero is striving to provide the most flexible, on-demand data integration solution to end-users and partners alike," said Stephen Wong, chairman, president, and CEO of Embarcadero Technologies. "We bring TIBCO over 10 years of expertise in the management and movement of data. In turn, this relationship demonstrates that ETL is no longer limited to large, mission-critical projects, and that Embarcadero DT/Studio is well-positioned to address the immediate needs of companies to quickly integrate information and get the right answers."

TIBCO DataExchange will be made generally available in the first half of 2005, and the combination of this data integration product along with TIBCO's business integration solutions will enable organizations to lower their overall total cost of ownership while achieving greater flexibility to address business requirements.
