BI Systems Architecture
This paper is the result of research surveying executives and includes robust analysis, which offers some insight into their needs. The results in this case study show that current tools were not sufficient, and more information architecture using data warehousing, OLAP tools, and data mining were required to equip them for their information needs and better decision-making. Take note of when you have found yourself without the tools to perform your best analysis. Were you able to obtain the tools and information you needed, or did you have to be creative or
Abstract
Devising an information architecture system that enables an organization to centralize information regarding its operational, managerial and strategic performance is one of the challenges currently facing information technology. The present study aimed to analyze an information architecture system developed using Business Intelligence (BI) technology. The analysis was performed based on a questionnaire enquiring as to whether the information needs of executives were met during the process. A theoretical framework was applied consisting of information architecture and BI technology, using a case study methodology. Results indicated that the transaction processing systems studied did not meet the information needs of company executives. Information architecture using data warehousing, online analytical processing (OLAP) tools and data mining may provide a more agile means of meeting these needs. However, some items must be included and others modified, in addition to improving the culture of information use by company executives.
