Thanks to a combination of social,
mobility, cloud, Big Data, CEP, NoSQL, SomeSQL, and other forces,
business intelligence and data warehousing are on the cusp of

Upstart data integration vendor
AnalytiX aims to shine a light on a not-so-well-known aspect of the
ETL process: pre-ETL source mapping. A decade ago, using
spreadsheets to manage ETL source mappings might've made sense;

anachronistic.

Just a handful of years ago, Big Data was
a problem in terms of scaling up IT systems and discovering the
business value. Thanks to advances in vendor platforms and user
practices, most enterprises today consider Big Data an opportunity -
- not a problem -- because they can mine it and analyze it for
valuable business insight.
