Bi tools are Tableau, QlikView,
iDashboard etc.
• BI technologies provide historical,
current and predictive views of business
operations. Their most common
functions are reporting, OLAP, data
mining, bench marking and many more.
Architecture vs. Framework
• BI Architecture is set of frameworks for organizing the data, information
management and technology components that are used to build BI systems
for reporting and data analytics.
• BI framework provides standards and best practices required to ensure BI
reporting and analysis meets organizational requirements.
Challenges of BI, Big Data, Data Analytics
• Continuous Availability
• Data Security and Workload Diversity

becoming a fairly substantial cost item. The overall cost of BI – the cost of
technology, upkeep and implementation – is certainly one of the challenges that
implementers are facing.
• The number of users are dramatically increasing.
• New areas of Operational BI and new Data sources.
• Performance and Scalability.

You will build effective data warehouses that make your organization's information accessible and consistent, turn data into an asset and serve as the foundation for decision making. Ralph Kimball's Data Warehouse Lifecycle Toolkit Architecture: A business intelligence architecture is a framework for organizing the data, information management and technology components that are used to build business intelligence (BI) systems for reporting and data analytics. Framework: A business intelligence framework provides the policy direction, standards and best practices required to ensure that business intelligence reporting and analysis meets organizational requirements. It is comprised of:  Data management (Governance) standards and best practices Project management framework Metrics management Technology: Business intelligence (BI) software is a collection of decision support technologies for the enterprise aimed at enabling knowledge workers such as executives, managers, and analysts to make better and faster decisions Tools: Business intelligence tools are a type of application software designed to retrieve, analyze, transform and report data for business intelligence. Environment: A BI environment involves business model, data Model, data sources, ETL tools needed to transform and organize data into useful information
