About the workshop
If you already have a Data Warehouse up and running you may think you’re
ready for operational BI. Not necessarily! Or maybe you’re new to BI and can
see immediate business benefits from this new and exciting concept, without
having to bother with some of that old data warehousing stuff. Think again!
Many of the classical precepts of data warehousing are highly relevant to
operational BI. Equally, just as many require careful thought and
reinterpretation in this new world. To take a single example, consider the
response time requirements for decision-making of a typical business analyst
versus those of a customer service rep. There’s an order of magnitude
difference, and that has major implications for system design and
implementation.
In this half-day workshop, we explore in depth the architectural,
technological and organisational issues you may encounter as you first get
started with Operational BI and how to move forward with implementing
operational BI in a rapidly changing IT environment. Topics include:
 |
Operational BI—what’s different from
traditional Data Warehousing? |
|
Moving from data requirements to
process needs |
|
Architecture and technology options
and implications of SOA |
|
Organisation and roll-out
considerations |
|
A sample scenario—with health
warnings! |
