What is Business Intelligence (BI)?
Business Intelligence (BI) is a data-driven process for collecting, integrating, analyzing, and presenting large volumes of business information. The goal of Business Intelligence is to transform raw data into useful information for making more informed business decisions. By incorporating a variety of skills, tools, technologies, applications, methodologies and practices into a streamlined process, BI enables businesses to collect data/information from internal systems and external sources, arrange it for analysis, run queries against it, and create reports.
