Harnessing the Power of the Cloud to Solve Analytics Challenges

The ability for companies to have access to robust, real-time business intelligence (BI) and analytics functionality is more important now than ever before. Companies are increasingly looking to migrate their BI and analytics capabilities to the cloud to take advantage of the vast competitive, functional and cost-cutting advantages the cloud has to offer.

Companies moving their BI and analytics workloads must now design, develop and deliver data analytics in a different way than they may be accustomed to. However, with so many cloud analytics options to choose from, how can businesses select the best option to match their unique needs and objectives—and what does the journey to get to the cloud look like?

The objectives of this session include:

• Detail and explain the key benefits and advantages of moving BI and analytics workloads to the cloud, and why companies shouldn’t wait any longer to make their move.
• Compare the different analytics cloud options companies have, and the pros and cons of each.
• Describe some of the challenges companies may face when moving their analytics to the cloud, and what they need to prepare for.
• Provide case studies of three companies detailing the issues they solved, the technologies they implemented and the benefits of the new solutions
