Data Warehousing Reaches an Inflection Point
A new survey of 421 data managers and professionals affiliated with the Independent Oracle Users Group (IOUG) members finds that while most companies have well-established data warehouse systems, adoption is still limited within their organizations. Many respondents report a significant surge of data within their data warehouses in recent times, fueled not only by growing volumes of transaction data but unstructured data as well.

Data Marts Can't Dance to Data's New Groove
Few things in the world are changing as dramatically as data. Data has tapped out a powerful rhythm to keep time with technology's bleeding edge, leaving many technologies struggling to keep up. It should come as no surprise, then, that many of the data strategies that IT departments developed, and still widely rely upon, are no longer sufficient for today's needs. You can put data marts near the top of that list.

Despite Their Value, DW Systems Remain Isolated from Mainstream Business Processes, According to New Research
Research results of a new study among Independent Oracle Users Group (IOUG) members, shows that while most companies have well-established data warehouse systems, adoption is still limited within their organizations. While companies are conservative in their plans for data warehouse upgrades, there is movement toward implementation of ready-to-run data solutions, and respondents expect to see benefits from these implementation efforts, including better performance and greater insights for decision makers. The findings of the survey, which was underwritten by Oracle, and conducted by Unisphere Research, are detailed in a new report, "A New Dimension to Data Warehousing: 2011 IOUG Data Warehousing Survey."

Getting Out of Storage Debt
Rampant data growth has been the stimuli to over-spending on data storage. Technology advances have enabled us to gather more data faster than any time in our history. This has been beneficial in many ways and has provided businesses more data that can enable them to optimize their sales, marketing, customer relations and product offerings. Unfortunately, in order to keep pace with data growth, businesses have had to provision more and more storage capacity, costing them millions of dollars.
