Security Analysis of Future Enterprise Business Intelligence

BI is at a crossroads, its place as an integral part of Data Management is secure, with everyone from the public to the private sector incorporating data into their operational processes. Yet, as the reliance on data increases, the nature of the role that BI will play in future data integration is split into two diametrically opposed possibilities that can substantially alter the form of Data Management. The traditional use of this technology requires formal BI education, a process involving professional certificates and college degrees that aids the growing number of professionals looking to pursue careers as BI analysts. There is also a movement towards the simplification of BI, one of the most distinctly emerging trends related to the data industry, as evinced by the increasing number of business professionals using data to influence their decisions. There is a plethora of evidence to indicate that both of these trends are growing, although conventional wisdom posits that the more popular one will eventually cancel out the other.
