Business Intelligence
2007-11-16 21:36:00 Business intelligence is not a new term. Actually it dates back to 1958 went those two words were created. The true information age started in the 20th century. Businesses had to collect data from somewhere but as there were lacking computers and technology the decisions of top managers were usually based rather on intuition rather than on solid data. With the progress of technology it became possible to gather more and more useful data. However this is when a brand, new and unexpected challenge emerged. Today we are all flooded with the flow of information coming from everywhere that it became so important to be able to effectively and wisely analyze and use the proper data for our businesses. Today we might feel overwhelmed with the amount of information circulating everywhere we look. We search for somebody to turn to that would help us in converting all this data into usable information and action. You need to understand the data you are receiving. Otherwise you might very easil...
