Business Analytics in your own Data Warehouse

The main objective of a well built data warehouse is to serve functions that are commonly referred to as Business Intelligence (BI). Although BI is a term that has become popular recently, it is a term that was first described by IBM in 1958.

BI results in the ability to turn information into higher business performance to answer core questions:

  • How are we doing?
  • What are the root causes?
  • How can we improve performance?

With Infosphere Warehouse and Cognos 10 BI the reports can be dynamically drilled down into the details that reveal the core issues, as the data warehouse allows the creation of a trusted view that can be tied to financial performance.
