WestClinTech was formed based on a very simple idea: any calculation that you can do in Excel you should be able to do in SQL Server. Based on their experience with users while in the application software business, they observed the common, inefficient practice of extracting data from the database into Excel for a wide variety of management, government, or shareholder reporting. Or, even worse, innovative financial instruments would be created in Excel and then shoe-horned to fit into legacy systems, which lacked the flexibility to provide proper valuations and risk analyses.
With XLeratorDB, everything is on the database. If you can calculate it in Excel, you can do the same calculation, with almost exactly the same syntax, in SQL Server.
About a hundred times faster.
With no network overhead.
With no limit to the amount of data.
