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

Webinar Abstract

Data, data, everywhere… Today’s BI 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 maintaining and enhancing these diverse BI architectures.

Part two of our series will examine the architectural components needed to support robust and easy-to-maintain access to all the data needed for effective BI. We will discuss the challenges involved and the best practices to ensure easy access to, and deployment of, these data sources. We bring it all together with a segment on the successful combination of the two halves ("Getting Information Out" and "Getting Data In").

Attendees will learn:

• The new architecture for a modern BI environment
• The critical architectural pieces that ensure successful access to and deployment of BI data assets
• The best practices for providing easy access to data sources and easy, fast deployment of data warehouse solutions
• Final best practices for combining these back-end assets with the end-user assets aimed at improving business user adoption
