Getting Data In: Answering the Challenge of Growing Sources of BI Data

Data, data everywhere… Today’s BI and analytics implementation experts are faced with increasing volumes and sources of data – on premises and off – new and innovative technologies, more complex data integration and quality issues, and difficulties in maintaining and enhancing these diverse BI architectures.

Understanding and Overcoming Challenges in Data Warehouse Modernization

As the rate of data management innovation accelerates, many data warehouse professionals are beginning to identify where gaps in the conventional data warehouse architecture prevent the organization from getting the best advantage from its information assets. Open source platforms, big data systems, and cloud computing all promise to revolutionize the pervasiveness of business intelligence and analytics across the organization. Consequently, many of these professionals are exploring ways to modernize their business intelligence, reporting, and analytics environments.

Ask the Expert on Data Literacy
TDWI Members Only

Businesses of all types and sizes are becoming more and more defined by their data. As this happens, it is equally important to improve the ability of managers, staff and even the general public, to make decisions which are well-informed by an understanding of the data behind their choices. Data literacy is the ability to understand the nature of the data we work with, and the ways in which we can interpret and communicate through our use of this important resource.

Relational Database Vendors are Going Big on Big Data

The number of options for storing, manipulating and accessing data have exploded over the last decade. Open source “NoSQL” (not-only SQL) have spread like wildfire among organizations with cutting-edge analytics. They, along with Hadoop, have lowered the cost barrier to powerful, flexible and incredibly scalable implementations of systems that access unstructured, semi-structured and flexibly-structured data in addition to relational data. However, the learning- and investment-curves have been prohibitive for many organizations. It is all too common that a company would like to advance its database and analytics capabilities with non-relational data but they don’t have the time, human resources or budgets to dedicate to spinning-up and learning how to use these new technologies.

IoT’s Impact on Data Warehousing: Defining IoT in Terms of Its Data Requirements

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a computing paradigm where a widening range of physical devices—including smartphones, vehicles, shipping pallets, kitchen appliances, manufacturing robots, and anything fitted with a sensor—can transmit data about their location, state, activity, and surroundings. Depending on the device type, some may also receive data and instructions that control device behavior.
