Launching today: DigiMine (www. digimine.com), a data warehousing and mining company founded by Microsoft alumni. Chief Executive Usama Fayyad is a big brain in the field who edits an industry journal and a newsletter. Data services are seen as complex and should join Enterprise Resource Planning software as natural candidates for outsourcing, Fayyad says. “IT [Information technology] will always pay attention to ERP, because it’s mission-critical,” he says. “The CEO says data warehousing and data mining are a top priority, but IT never quite gets around to it. Now, for the price of a single IT employee, they can.”
