In November 2010, after a brief engagement period, Talend and Sopera got married.  With Silver Lake Sumeru officiating, and joined by their close family and friends in the VC and open source community, the two companies began a new and exciting journey together.

Now – only six months later – Talend and Sopera are pleased to announce the birth of four healthy new products.  The normal gestation period is usually a bit longer than that, but open source companies are used to breaking rules that many people take for granted!

According to the official press release, the new products were named in strict accordance with tradition:

• Talend ESB Standard Edition v4.0
• Talend Open Studio v4.2
• Talend Open Profiler v4.2
• Talend MDM Community Edition v4.2

The newborns are undeniably part of the same family because, like all monozygotic siblings, they share the same DNA.  While developing unique personalities of their own, they will always benefit from a powerful and unique compatibility with one another.

It’s a memorable day in the world of open source!  The integrated family of application integration and data management products will soon, despite its age, rival established products and democratize the world of integration.

Best wishes to the happy family!
