The future of BI is networked: A networked model for business intelligence and analytics.
Networked BI is a technology-driven approach for analytic data and business information and based on the idea that is trusted and well-governed and is not at odds with speed and ease of use. It leverages new capabilities made available by modern technologies like cloud computing— multi-tenancy, virtualization, and web-scale architectures—to truly combine the centralized and decentralized models of BI, delivering the best aspects of both: end-user self-service without analytical silos.The agile nature of a networked BI approach eliminates the need for lengthy and costly “waterfall†development projects.
