Gartner Announces Business Intelligence Summit 2012

April 2-4 at the JW Marriott at LA Live, Los Angeles

In Gartner’s 2012 global survey of CIOs analytics/business intelligence was the top-ranked technology for 2012 as CIOs are combining analytics with other technologies to create new capabilities. Analytics is no longer a stand-alone technology based on isolated data warehouses and analytical models. CIOs need to consider their technology priorities in combination to reach the level of innovation and customer experience that makes the enterprise’s strategic objectives achievable.

  • Big data and unstructured content requiring special handling
  • Cloud’s impact on how organizations source analytics, BI and performance solutions
