       Technology Companies Partner to Implement Comprehensive
   Analytical and Reporting Solutions for Oracle(r) E-Business Suite

             First Engagement At a Fortune 50 Company

FREMONT, Calif., Feb. 5, 2009 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- iGATE (Nasdaq:IGTE), an integrated Technologies and Operations (iTOPS) company, today announced a strategic alliance with Jaros Technologies Corporation to provide integration and ongoing customer support for Jaros Analytics for Oracle(r) E-Business Suite. iGATE and Jaros will together offer their solutions to existing and new clients. Installation and integration are already underway at a Fortune 50 company.

iGATE offers full implementation and integration of Jaros' pre-packaged reporting solution. As a result of iGATE's tailored integration process, customers can extract and transform data from Oracle's E-Business Suite and legacy systems into a customized format designed for their specific business reporting and analysis needs. With ongoing technical support from iGATE, customers can update and extend their solution as appropriate for their business needs.

Built from scratch reporting solutions are costly and time consuming, undercutting the business value of data warehousing. By integrating a pre-packaged reporting solution with a customer's existing Oracle EBusiness Suite, iGATE and Jaros transform business reporting and create near real-time data for trend analysis, offering customers important information in a business environment where quick decision making is of vital importance.

"It isn't possible to achieve the full benefit of today's ERP systems without a reporting process that yields actionable information in a timely manner. This partnership with Jaros extends iGATE's position as a leader in implementing and supporting ERP systems. Existing and new clients will be able to find value in this improved business intelligence and reporting process," said Hari Murthy, Chief Sales and Marketing Officer, iGATE. "iGATE is committed to providing customers with business value through solutions that enable up to the moment, informed business decisions in ever changing environments."

"Since iGATE has a very strong focus on enterprise applications which include the world's top ERP and BI solutions we are very excited about this partnership. With iGATE implementing and reselling our reporting solution, companies will be able to implement a successful solution as well as receive remarkable services," says Paul Scheibal, CEO of Jaros Technologies. "iGATE is a valuable partner in helping clients to realize measurable ROI with the Jaros solution."
