Business intelligence incorporates a variety of tools that enable organizations to collect data from internal systems and external sources, prepare it for analysis, develop, and run queries against the data, and create reports, dashboards and data visualizations.
This landscape is being reshaped by a number of key trends, including visual analytics, self-service delivery, unstructured data, cloud, and mobile computing, making BI interfaces that present actionable insight more valuable to organizations than ever before.
There are several different kinds of solutions companies can tap into to manage their BI such as visual analytics, cloud computing, and mobile.
While the cloud makes it easy to host BI tools and other types of data, a new trend is emerging, the blending of BI and data discover as well as machine learning. Along with cloud, there has been a surge of self-learning analytics systems, which combine insights from people, algorithms, and models, across vast and varied data to improve daily decisions.
