                    Social media and the future, metrics for valuing employees, and the importance of load balancing.
                    
		            
                
                    
                    
                    
                 
            
                
	                
                    
                                        
		            
                    What's ahead for BI professionals, plus the pros and cons of agile frameworks and how to perform more efficient backups.
                    
		            
                
                    
                    
                    
                 
            
                
	                
                    
                                        
		            
                    We discuss rapid pre-merger analytics and post-merger integration in the cloud.
                    
		            
                
                    
                    
                    
                 
            
                
	                
                    
                                        
		            
                    Combine data from a compensation management system with the power of analytics, mix in the right algorithms, and you have a prescription for far more powerful sales performance management.
