Overview
Data a Information a Knowledge. If only it were that easy to just get to the Knowledge. Companies create volumes of data on a weekly / monthly / quarterly / annual basis. Tapping into these datasets can unleash a wealth of information to make strategic business decisions.
Not long ago, Business Intelligence and Analytics was considered a cost-prohibitive solution that could only be leveraged by large business with highly skilled expensive staff. Microsoft’s entry into Business Intelligence has enabled small and mid-sized businesses to leverage a powerful, cost-effective solution. In 2006, Microsoft purchased ProClarity, a leading business intelligence player. Over the past years Microsoft has been integrating the ProClarity feature set into their Microsoft Business Intelligence platform. As a result, the Gartner Group 2008 Business Intelligence report has positioned Microsoft in the upper right-hand quadrant (ability to execute and completeness of vision).
