Oracle nomeada pela Forrester Leader em Enterprise Business Intelligence Platforms
- by Paulo Folgado
According to an October 2010 report from independent analyst firm
Forrester Research, Inc., Oracle is a leader in enterprise business
intelligence (BI) platforms.
Forrester Research defines BI as a set of methodologies, processes,
architectures, and technologies that transform raw data into meaningful
and useful information, which can then be used to enable more effective
strategic, tactical, and operational insights and decision-making.
Written by Forrester vice president and principal analyst Boris Evelson, The Forrester Wave: Enterprise Business Intelligence Platforms, Q4 2010 states that "Oracle has built new metadata-level [Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 11g]
integration with Oracle Fusion Middleware and Oracle Fusion
Applications and continues to differentiate with its versatile ROLAP
engine."
The report goes on, "And in addition to closing some gaps it had in 10.x
versions such as lack of RIA functionality, [the Oracle Business
Intelligence Enterprise Edition 11g] actually leapfrogs the competition
with the Common Enterprise Information Model (CEIM)--including the
ability to define actions and execute processes right from BI metadata
across BI and ERP applications."
"We're pleased that the Forrester Wave recognizes Oracle Business
Intelligence as a leading enterprise BI platform," said Paul Rodwick,
vice president of product management, Oracle Business Intelligence.
