What is Business Intelligence?
Business Intelligence (BI) involves capturing raw data, then transforming and combining that data into information that can be used to improve business decision making. We have special expertise in the deployment of Microsoft’s Business Intelligence Reporting Services as well as SQL Server Data Analysis and Warehousing tools.

Business Intelligence advancements include:

  • Integrated Platform. Building on SQL Server 7.0, SQL Server 2000, and SQL Server 2005 deliver an end-to-end business intelligence platform with integrated analytics including online analytical processing (OLAP), data mining, extract, transformation and load (ETL) tools, data warehousing and reporting functionality. This comprehensive, integrated approach helps organisations to seamlessly build and deploy robust business intelligence applications while controlling costs.
  • Improved Decision Making. Advancements to existing business intelligence features, such as OLAP and data mining, and the introduction of a new reporting server provides businesses with the ability to transform information into better business decisions at all organisational levels, from the information worker to the CEO.
  • Security and Availability. Scalability, availability and security enhancements help provide users with uninterrupted access to business intelligence applications and reports.
  • Enterprise-Wide Analytical Capabilities. Improved ETL tools enable organisations to easily integrate and analyse data from multiple information sources. By analysing data across a variety of operational systems, organisations gain a competitive edge through a holistic understanding of their business.
