Three, it’s the magic number…

From De La Soul to Denis Irwin. 3 is the magic number.

Last week we passed our third birthday on the Stratus blog, so once again I’d like to start by thanking you all for taking your time to visit us and have a read. This will however be the final entry for the Stratus blog, as we’ll be moving house soon to a combined PBBI site which will bring you not just news on MapInfo Stratus but all other offerings in the GIS suite and beyond. You may have noticed that the content on the blog has very much diversified in the time that Mark and I have been writing. MapInfo Stratus isn’t just about having an isolated web mapping application, but part of our on going mission to provide you with a GIS ecosystem through metadata and data management, desktop, web GIS and much more. Over the past few years many of you have begun to take advantage of offerings from PBBI outside the GIS space. For example the Spectrum data quality platform helping you to get your data in good shape before plugging in the GIS. Last month the US saw it’s formal launch of the Geosk online data store – something which will be rolled out in other territories soon. Recently we announced the first external launch of MapInfo Spatial Server – the engine which has been used for some time underneath MapInfo Stratus.  So as we continue to progress it becomes less about an individual product but about how we can provide capabilities for a solution.  I hope you’ll find the new blog as informative – maybe more so – in learning more about whats going on in PBBI and how it can benefit you and your needs.

Hopefully a redirect will appear on this page along with all the content migrated soon, but you can find out all the news here: http://www.pbinsight.com/blog/

Finally my thanks to everyone for contributing to this blog over the past three years, it has been fantastic to meet people all across the world who’ve read this and enjoyed our ramblings, opinions and occasional good bits of information. Both Mark and I have appreciated your support,

Enjoy,

Chris M
