INTRODUCTION
BI refers to application and technology, which is used to gather, provide access to, and analyze data and information about the company
operations BI is neither a product nor a system. It is an architecture and a collection of
integrated operational as well as decision-support applications and
databases that provide the business community easy access to business
data
History Of Business Intelligencein 1979, John Rockart published the article “Chief Executives Define Their Own Data Needs” proposing that systems used by
corporate leaders ought to give them data about the key jobs the company must do well
to succeed.
Ten years later, in 1999, Howard Dresner coined the term “business intelligence” to describe
systems that help decision makers throughout the organization understand the state of their
company’s world.
In January 2006, Thomas Davenport published the results of a two year study “Competing on Analytics”. His research identified that virtually all the organizations identified as “aggressive
analytics competitors” were the clear leaders in their fields, and they attribute much of their success to the masterful exploitation of data. Such companies included: Tesco, Wal-Mart,
Dell, Marriott Hotels and Progressive Insurance.

Business Problem
• Where is the problem? • Marketing Mgr is right: the data IS in the servers • IT Mgr is also right: is not easy to give data the right
structure to answers questions • For IT is just enough to deal with data, Marketing
needs to extract information from this data.
Data and information are not the same
• • • Companies always maintain several systems to run
their everyday business • • • All of the company workers add and check data from
this systems all the time • • • However sometimes this data, presented in this way,
is not enough to make business decisions

customers are working and driving business value• Get instant insight to the exact profit by company of

BI Technologies
need to have a secure computer system which can specify different levels of user
access to the data 'warehouse',
need to have sufficient data capacity, a plan for how long data will be stored
(data retention).
BI analysts have developed software tools to gather and analyze
large quantities of unstructured data such as
production metrics, sales statistics,
attendance reports,customer attrition figures.

The Future of BI…
BI users are beginning to demand [Real time BI] or near real time
analysis relating to their business, particularly in front line operations.
They will come to expect up to date and fresh information in the same fashion as they monitor stock quotes
online.
Monthly and even weekly analysis will not suffice
The Future of BI…
"Business users don't want to wait for information. Information needs to be always on
and never out of date.
This is the way we live our lives today. Why should Business Intelligence be any
different?"
Charles Nicholls, CEO of SeeWhy, a Software company,
Windsor UK
BI 2.0
“BI 2.0" is the recently-coined term which is part of the continually developing BI
industry and heralds the next step for BI.
“BI 2.0" is used to describethe acquisition, provision
and analysis of "real time" data.
"Real Time BI…a pipe dream”
As long as Business Intelligence relies upon some kind of data warehouse structure
(including web-based virtual data "warehouses"), data will have to be converted into "a lowest common
denominator consistent set."
When it comes to dealing with multiple, disparate data sources and the
constantly changing, often volatile, business environment which
requires tweaking and restructuring of IT systems, getting BI data in a genuinely
true, "real time" format remains, "a pipe dream.....Hayler
"Real Time BI - Get Real"
"The mismatch between fantasy and reality is driven by two factors.
The first is that business rules and structures (general ledgers, product classification, asset hierarchies, etc.) are not in fact
uniform, but are spread out among many disparate transaction system
implementations...
The second problem is that the landscape of business structures is itself in constant flux, as groups reorganize, subsidiaries are sold or new companies acquired".
…Veteran Analyst… Andy Hayler…
