Increased adoption of analytics
Data explosion, growing 50% p.a. Frequent need for change More users / usage of analytics Users create queries despite having no knowledge of BI technology
THE CHALLENGES
Traditional BI platforms are bottlenecks
Unpredictable response times Inability to meet demand for change (tuning or boutique hardware)
