Business unintelligence : insight and innovation beyond analytics and big data
Barry Devlin (Author)
Annotation Business intelligence (BI) used to be so simple. Integrate and copy data from your transactional systems into a specialized relational database, apply BI reporting and query tools and add business users. No longer. Analytics, big data and an array of diverse technologies have changed everything. More importantly, business is insisting on ever more value, ever faster from information and from IT in general. An emerging biz-tech ecosystem demands that business and IT work together. Business unIntelligence reflects the new reality that in today's socially complex and rapidly changing world, business decisions must be based on a combination of rational and intuitive thinking. Integrating cues from diverse information sources and tacit knowledge, decision makers create unique meaning to innovate heuristically at the speed of thought. This book provides a wealth of new models that business and IT can use together to design support systems for tomorrow's successful organizations
