Product History
Originally
developed by Upstream Software, Financial Data Quality Management was
intended to be a business user’s ETL tool for data management and data
quality management. The product grew in popularity with organizations’
increased requirements for tools that promoted Sarbanes-Oxley and other
regulatory compliance.
In 2002, Hyperion became a preferred partner of Upstream, eventually
leading to the distribution of the product to 200+ Hyperion customers.
In 2006, Hyperion acquired Upstream and branded the product as Hyperion
Financial Data Quality Management.
