SAN MATEO, Calif. — June 9, 2010 — Composite Software, Inc., the leader in high performance data virtualization, today announced that one of its customers, Compassion International, has been recognized as a “Laureate” in IDG’s Computerworld Honors Program. Compassion International is the world’s largest Christian child development organization, and its Ministry Information Library (MIL), powered in part by Composite Software’s data virtualization middleware, was acknowledged for its use of information technology (IT) to benefit society.
“Through child sponsorships, Compassion International currently is helping more than one million children around the world to move out of poverty,” said Bob Reary, director of Customer Value at Composite Software. “To meet the information needs of its growing program, Compassion has deployed its new information architecture, MIL, to help its IT team respond more quickly to end user requests, and to more easily support new Web 2.0 collaboration applications, thereby improving the flow of information throughout the company and the communication between sponsors. We’re honored to be a part of the technology mix that makes this possible.”
Each year, members of the Computerworld Honors Program Chairmen’s Committee identify organizations whose use of IT has been especially noteworthy for the originality of its conception, the breadth of its vision, and the significance of its benefit to society.
