Hot Tool, Hot Product, Hotter Prospects

Reduce your development time, understand your data set and it's relationships in a visual format, accomplish all of this, and profile part of the data while your at it. You've heard of social networking on the web? If you've used Linked-In, or Plaxo, or another contact tool, you've seen some of the "social network diagrams" they produce. Well, now a company has gone and done something similar but with Source System data.

This particular product looks to have a lot of promise in the "understanding of data warehousing/data integration" space. It has an incredible visualization tool for data sets. Keep in mind it does not mine the data model (to my knowledge), but it is capable of extracting DATA RELATIONSHIPS based on patterns, that may be more business related than data model related. It brings the data set back to the business.

I'd love to hear what you think about Cogito, Inc.
