Business Intelligence for Smarter, More Agile Business Sheikh Manzoor Ghani, BI and Performance Management, IBM Malaysia
The reality of living in a globally integrated world is upon us. Frozen credit markets and limited access to capital. Economic downturn and future uncertainty. Energy shortfalls and erratic commodity prices. Information explosion and risk/opportunity growth. Slowing superpowers and emerging economies. Increasingly complex supply chains and empowered consumers. The world is connected: economically, socially and technically. 2
The World Is Becoming Smarter 3
INSTRUMENTED We now have the ability to measure, sense and see the exact condition of everything. Today, there are 1 billion transistors for each person on the planet. 1 By 2010, 30 billion RFID tags will be embedded into our world and across entire ecosystems. 1 Everything will become instrumented: supply chains, healthcare networks, cities and even natural systems like rivers. 4 1 Sam Palmisano speech, November 12, 2008
INTERCONNECTED People, systems and objects can communicate and interact with each other in entirely new ways. The internet of people is 1 billion strong. Almost one third of the world s population will be on the web by 2011. 1 There will be nearly 4 billion mobile phone subscribers worldwide by the end of 2008. 1 The Internet of things cars, appliances, cameras, roadways, pipeline, pharmaceuticals and even livestock is headed to 1 trillion. 5 1 Sam Palmisano speech, November 12, 2008
INTELLIGENT We can respond to changes quickly and accurately, and get better results by predicting and optimizing for future events. Every day, 15 petabytes of new information are being generated. This is 8x more than the information in all U.S. libraries. 1 An average company with 1,000 employees spends $5.3 million a year to find information stored on its servers. 1 New computing models manage the massive amounts of data generated by the proliferation of end-user devices, sensors, and actuators. Combined with advanced analytics, these technologies are making us smarter. 6 1 New Intelligence White Paper from ThinkForward website

Helping a smarter planet discover a new kind of intelligence NEW INTELLIGENCE Enabling Technologies Proven Approach Industry Solutions & Accelerators
Today, more than ever, organizations are under pressure to leverage a wealth of information to make more intelligent choices. VOLUME OF DIGITAL DATA With the proliferation of end-user devices, sensors and actuators, the nature of data is changing. Data volumes and network bandwidth are expected to grow tenfold in the next three years. VELOCITY OF DECISION-MAKING The market demands that businesses optimize decisions, take action based on good information and utilize advanced predictive capabilities all with speed and efficiency. VARIETY OF INFORMATION With the expansion of information comes large variances in the complexion of available data very noisy with lots of errors and no opportunity to cleanse it in a world of real-time decision-making. SHIFT IN WHAT WE ANALYZE Enterprises need a broader, systemsbased approach to the information they examine and optimize. Stream computing and event processing capabilities are enabling the analysis of massive volumes. 9

The Magic Quadrant is Gartner, Inc. s opinion and is an analytical representation of a marketplace at and for a specific time period. It measures vendors against Gartner defined criteria for a marketplace. The positioning of vendors within a Magic Quadrant is based on the complex interplay of many factors. Gartner does not advise enterprises to select only those firms in the "Leaders" quadrant. In some situations, firms in the Visionary, Challenger, or Niche Player quadrants may be the right matches for an enterprise's requirements. Wellinformed vendor selection decisions should rely on more than a Magic Quadrant. Gartner research is intended to be one of many information sources including other published information and direct analyst interaction.
