The decline of BI-nosaurs and the rise of self-service analytics

Have you ever heard of BI-nosaurs?

At this year's Gartner BI Summit, Gartner's Research Director Joao Tapadinhas presented a session titled “How to Architect a Modern BI and Analytics Platform.”

In this presentation, Joao refers to folks working on traditional BI platforms and not embracing new trends like self-service analytics as BI-nosaurs. If they do not evaluate the new way of doing BI, Joao suggests, they could become extinct.

Now, before you pass judgment on his comment, go to Gartner's on-demand portal and watch Joao’s presentation. He has some very good points. And from our point of view, we are seeing a lot of customers join the self-service movement.

So we, along with our friends at Informatica, developed some tips to help you develop a self-service BI platform. Check them out below.
