Business Intelligence - Overview

According to Webster’s Revised Unabridged Dictionary the definition of Analytics is “the science of analysis" and analysis is “the tracing of things to their source and resolving of knowledge into its original principles”.

 

This is exactly what UAccess Analytics wants to provide users on Campus.

 

Access to critical data is paramount for any decision maker in an organization as they need to be able to query data with ease and at their convenience. With the advent of Mosaic and the new Data Warehouse a new way of interacting with data has been opened up. Decision makers now can have data at their fingertips through dashboards, reports, and ad hoc querying capabilities.

 

Dashboards and reports are good tools for monitoring operations. They also allow some analysis of root causes and can guide future activities. For the more advanced analyst, analysis includes the iterative visual scrutiny and predictive modeling to gain a more in-depth understanding of the data.
