Naeem Hashmi On Embedding
Real-Time Analytics
"As
organizations grow to depend
on globally distributed
service networks, their
business intelligence (BI)
capability must adapt.
Here's how autonomous agents
will "embed" BI in business
processes to overcome new
challenges."

I
wrote a few weeks ago
about Oracle's current
business intelligence vision
being based around real-time
data warehousing built using
materialized views and
Oracle 10g's new
asynchronous change data
capture, and
this Infoworld article
puts Oracle's vision in the
context of the other big
vendors' move to embed
analytics in their ERP
offerings. You might also
remember Oracle's
announcement last month
about
Business Activity Monitoring,
a new module within
Application Server 10g which
was described as being able
to
"detect,
correlate, and analyze
separate events such as RFID
scans, bar code readings, or
events out of an enterprise
application or a
supply-chain process event.
Kurian said the the BAM
application is unique in
that it can correlate both
traditional historical
events out of a data
warehouse with real-time
events.".
Interesting
stuff.
