Event Name : Business Intelligence in the Cloud
Event Date : 18th November 2010
Venue : Microsoft Campus, Gachiblowli, Hyderabad
Time : 1:30 PM - 5:30 PM (IST)
There is a great deal of confusion over the definition of cloud computing and its benefits to organizations. Many analysts even feel that it has yet to live up to the hype. However, few argue about the cloud’s potential to change the way computing resources are delivered. We not only discuss the different definitions of the cloud but also the potential benefits and challenges of architecting BI solutions in external, virtual computing architectures. We will also share lessons learned and the best practices and pitfalls of BI in the cloud.

To B or not to B, what can I do? - Arun Gupta, Group CIO, K Raheja Group
Business Intelligence means different things to different people. Some global case studies claim 1000+% ROI, while Research analysts claim that 80% of these initiatives fail to deliver. In India, the practice and adoption has been growing by multiples rather than percentage. The discussion based on personal experience is to explore various facets of BI reality in the Indian context and benchmark with global best practices.
Instituting BI in the Real world - Anil Khopkar, CIO, Bajaj Auto
This session provides a direct customer perspective to BI. We hear from a business leader, who has successfully harnessed the power of BI to drive business results. The leader shares the heightened challenges faced in today’s business environment and how BI needs to shape-up to these demands. This is a ‘listening to the customer’ session; giving us insights into the expectations from IT functions, consulting organizations and platform providers. This session will also touch upon the real life challenges IT leader faces in terms of securing the buy-in from the business sponsors and increasing the adoption.
BI Patterns of a Global Enterprise - Mr. Chandu Mukkavalli, BI Leader, Deloitte
In the current digital age where organizations are globally spread, managing and maintaining quality of data is an important challenge to address. This challenge is more significant for Global BI Systems (GBIS) because maintaining the Global Business Rules (GBR) and Local Business Rules (LBR) in the same system will be very difficult. To design the GBIS, this paper presents additional decision parameters to decide the appropriate architecture for GBIS, and to maintain data quality for global and local requirements. This paper presents four different types of organization scenarios and associated architectures which can be implemented within organizations, enabling top management to have actionable intelligence.
BI: Technology Perspective - Venkat Iyer, BI Head, Capgemini
The dimensions of growth - new products, new markets and big acquisitions were put on leash during the global recession of 2009. Fortunately, technology innovation have not stalled in ‘BI & PM’ space, which has undergone extensive advances across the breadth of ‘BI stack. Real-time, Agile, Operational, Cloud and other latest trends in BI. we will explore key trends that are reshaping BI/ IM and discuss the power of ‘information, intelligence & insight’ in helping enterprises leverage BI in their ‘transformation’ journey.
BI: Best Practices for the real ROI
Armed with techno-business perspective, our panel of thought-leaders and practitioners, explores best practices for enhancing business capability and maximize the value of BI. They will discuss BI and Business Alignment – Challenges and opportunities, How is value created or measured, How is value created or measured, How to create new capabilities to help drive business performance and share the biggest lessons they have learned.

Traditional methods of BI such as OLAP and preliminary data analysis yielded significant benefits in terms of efficiencies to the business over the years. Application of BI and Analytics to the realm of public domain is fascinating and could yield even more benefits if applied in the delivery of services that affect our lives. It gets more complex when applied in public domain such as urbanization, which has conflicting goals, multiple stakeholders and enormous undertakings. Studying complex systems provides an opportunity to explore application of various quantitative techniques that existed for a long time, mostly confined to academics.
With the maturity of information leverage and evidence based approaches in decision making, there is a constant pursuit to apply innovative techniques, methods and frameworks that results in better business outcomes. It becomes imperative that, the exposure of practitioners of to the numerous other methods available be mastered and added to their repertoire. This event provides:
An overview about eclectic quantitative techniques.
Use cases of various methods as applied in urbanization
Exposure to complementing technologies to BI and Analytics
Know the state of the Analytical capabilities of the Software
