  • 8 Steps to Successful Data Virtualization

    Datasource Consulting

    The verdict is in and Data Virtualization (DV) is here to stay. This is driven by many factors such as the maturation of vendor technologies (e.g., heterogeneous join optimization, row level security, and high availability), increases in computing power, and a decrease in time end users are willing to wait for access to data. Over the past few years, companies like Informatica, Composite Software, Denodo Technologies, and IBM have led the industry charge to...

  • Agile BI – Increasing the Velocity of Reporting and Analytics

    Datasource Consulting

    One of the biggest complaints we hear from business users is that it takes too long to develop reporting and analytics when working with IT. Some BI programs have turnaround times ranging from weeks and even months from the time a business unit requests a report. By that time, the business has often found a different source for the information, or the issue or no longer relevant. This is where Agile BI comes into play. By joining forces with the business user community, we increase the capacity…

    Business Intelligence (BI) provides the greatest challenge in an Enterprise Portal (EP)
    environment. EPs fulfill a significant need within an enterprise, however, they lack an
    efficient and robust means to leverage and deploy meaningful BI.
    The EP market is filled with scores of companies offering commercial grade EP
    software. Not only is it a challenge to select and successfully implement an EP, it is
    even more difficult to effectively provide the portal benefit to business areas that require
    more sophisticated BI integration. Standards are loose and the true meaning of an EP
    varies from business to business and industry to industry. This presents a serious
    challenge for organizations implementing both portal and BI solutions.
    This document studies the challenge of Business Intelligence in an EP and presents a
    solution to effectively deliver BI to the enterprise.
