Visual Data Discovery, Collaborative BI, Big Data Analytics, Data Vault, Data Virtualization, Embedding Hadoop, NoSQL, Data Lakes, Trends and Innovations in BI

More data, more users, more reports, more extensive forms of analytics, and more up-to-date data are the demands for BI systems today. The key question organizations have to ask is whether their traditional data warehouse architecture is resilient and scalable enough to support these new demands.

The same question we can ask ourselves for the traditional data integration and reporting tools we deploy. Is our BI system up to this task and are our tools ready? How dow we unlock the value of BI in the future? In this unique two-day BI summit, four internationally acclaimed independent BI analysts will introduce you to these new demands and will discuss the new technologies and methods, provide insights and explain the organizational impact. They will guide you through the labyrinth consisting of big data, visual data discovery tools, data lakes and data reservoirs, in-memory technology, complex event processing, data virtualization, and real-time integration. Seize the opportunity to discuss these topics with Claudia Imhoff, Rick van der Lans, Wayne Eckerson and Barry Devlin.

Some of the main topics that will be discussed these two days:

• Visual Data Discovery: Unleashing the Next Wave of Self-Service BI
• Collaborative BI – How to Get Started
• Creating an Analytical Ecosystem in the Age of Big Data
• The Marriage of Data Vault and Data Virtualization
• Using Hadoop and NoSQL in data warehouse environments
• Developing an agile data warehouse
• Logical data warehouses, data lakes and data reservoirs
• Emerging Trends and Innovations in BI
