"We've also
been deeply impressed by the Sybase Professional Services team's understanding
of our particular administrative challenges during the design and
implementation phase of the project." The objective of the Nanjing Local Tax Database project is to transfer the
applications of legacy operation system queues, reporting and analysis to the
newly established data warehouse system.

help facilitate the integration of the Nanjing Local Tax Bureau's internal
data and become the bureau's database center by centralizing data from
different bureau locations and data platforms. With its advanced development tools and outstanding data warehousing

by historical business changes within the Bureau, to make legacy data complete
and consistent.

gateway to provide personalized models for users, allowing users to adopt new
models for inquiry, reporting, analysis and customized operation. Components of Industry Warehouse Studio and Adaptive Server IQ Multiplex,
