The Insider's Guide to Business and IT Agility
Many organizations are adopting SOA in order to increase business agility. However, the enterprise infrastructure and architecture is only part of the solution. The greater business benefits come from enabling real-time (or business-time) intelligence within the context of a business process or SOA solution. This is being called operational BI. This conference will cover the technologies that deliver the business benefits, including BI, MDM, dashboards, event processing, business performance management, and predictive analysis. Industry analysts and experts will provide their perspectives on how BI will enhance the business value of other IT initiatives.
