The Business Intelligence Blog

since this blog was updated. Nearly a month and a half of seperation only was possible because a frantic pace of a project at work. Not because of lack of interest. But because of lack of available time. However professional I wanted to be with the updation of this blog, life seems to have an effect on the availability of time.

It’s summer and hence weekends are filled with busy trips to places of interest. Blame it on my new Camry that has nearly kept me out of the house for the last few weeks.

Though I am saving blogging for the rainy days, the BI world seems to march ahead. And to keep pace with it’s stride, its necessary to keep this weblog updated. I’m planning to capture atleast the most important news that happens in the BI world, everyday. And that seems to be a long drawn dream.

The world of Business Intelligence as of today, is damn exciting. The enterprises are moving towards more BI deployments. The vendors are employing more resources to churn out better BI tools and applications. And the extent to which Business Intelligence is playing a quintessential role in business today, excites a BI guy totally. It freaks me out sometimes.

Ever since I got into the BI world, I’ve been always on the lookout for BI news and articles. While there are numerous resources on the net, there is no blog just for Business Intelligence. And having a personal blog for nearly 5 years now, I was hoping to create a niche blog on Business Intelligence for some time. 

Earlier I was planning to host this blog at nextbi.com which has been in existence for a couple of months. And I’ve been playing with the templates to make it simpler. I also had thebiblog.com in mind. Few of friends suggested that thebiblog.com was much simpler than nextbi.com. Hence I booked the domain, installed wordpress and moved over the templates in less than 2 hours. Just to show how easy it is to setup a blog. The tough part is to to keep it going. 

Professionally I’ve been working on BI for over 5 years now. Most of them were the most interesting projects someone could do. Right from designing BI systems to deploying and maintaining them, I’ve been through most of the phases. Oh !! yeah, let me state the obvious, this blog has nothing to do with my employer or any of clients. Whatever thats written will be my personal opinions and comments.

This BI blog doesn’t have a mission or a vision statement. Its just a BI guy’s enthusiasm to chronicle the exciting period of Business Intelligence technology, as it stands today. So hop on and let’s attempt to blog the next big stride of Business Intelligence.
