2.0. BI 1.0 has provided fundamental benefits to
corporations, enabling them to have a much better handle
on their business and its performance. But the Business
Intelligence industry is far from being mature. It has a
multitude of avenues to develop, and it will provide
opportunities for its adopters on a much larger scale in
the future. In this session Frederic Moraillon will talk
through what Business Objects views as the 5 fundamental
revolutions that will be taking place in Business
Intelligence over the coming years and highlight some
examples of how this is already starting to emerge. |
