Today, JasperSoft, a leading Open Source Business Intelligence software vendor and a Red Hat Exchange RHX partner, announced that it has secured $12.5 million in venture funding and we are pleased to be a part of that group of investors.

This investment is part of a strategy to help support a thriving open source ecosystem through RHX. Our goal is to present open source solution sets that reach well beyond the OS and solve real problems for customers. Our investment and partnership in JasperSoft will help us achieve that goal by expanding the opportunities for open source software and leveraging the value inherent in all open source solutions.

We congratulate JasperSoft on their continued success and are proud to demonstrate our leadership in the marketplace by serving as an ambassador to open source technologies and by making sound investments in our partners.
