If you're leading a BI effort, what trends in this category should be on your radar screen for 2008? Operational BI, open-source tools and attention to unstructured data should rank prominently.

Manufacturers from developed nations have been capitalising on the low labor costs of emerging economies for a long time. It's a familiar story: product design happens in, say, the US, and manufacturing gets cranked out in Southeast Asia. Then the products are shipped to the developed world for final sale. But in recent years a new trend has emerged. Many of these same companies are now moving R D, distribution, and sales to China, India and elsewhere in the developing world because they see market opportunities where the GDP is growing dramatically and household incomes are on the rise. GE CEO Jeffrey Immelt said recently that he expects 60% of company revenue growth to come from emergin...

Globally, open source BI solutions are in huge demand, with interest picking up in a huge way during the recession. Open Source BI products from vendors such as Pentaho and Jaspersoft have evolved from being community-driven tools to being backed up by support from professional service vendors. In India, awareness levels are low and the market is at a nascent stage. However, the potential for adoption is huge—especially among SMEs—a market that is made of over 6 million Indian enterprises, contributing to 42 percent of India’s total exports.

When you are coming from behind, embracing openness is always a good strategy. That is exactly what Sony is doing with its electronic book reader, which is up against the Amazon Kindle. The key to the Kindle’s success is that it is paired with the largest book store in the world, where most people likely to buy an electronic book already have accounts. Sony is trying to fight this advantage by being more open and thereby attracting other large players into its sphere of influence. It’s biggest ally in this fight is Google, whose M.O. is to attack closed industries with open technologies. Today, Google is making available more than one million public domain books in the open ePub format, whi...

Open Source as a Business Model In order to be competitive in whatever market or business you're in, companies need to be very smart and use analytics to run their businesses. You have to have the leanest, meanest logistics supply chain. You have to know that the market's going to turn so that you don't have too much inventory. If you don't do that very well, you won't survive very long. 'We've seen a lot of Tier 1 companies go bankrupt in the last little while because of that' says Tuerk (CEO InfoBright) . The reason business intelligence and analytics has grown so much is because the volume of data, the pervasiveness of electronic services, is exploding. So now, instead of just having a C...

By Ryan Barnett Disgraced financial guru Bernie Madoff is facing a 150-year prison sentence for perpetrating the biggest Ponzi scheme in history. In March 2009, Bernie Madoff pled guilty to defrauding investors of $65 billion. At the time of his arrest, he had a Rolodex of celebrity clients rivaled only by Heidi Fleiss in the early '90s. People like Steven Spielberg , Kevin Bacon and John Malkovich had entrusted their money with ol' Bernie 'Made off,' and were left fuming over the deception. The effects of this fraud are terrible. Many people lost their life savings, and several charities that had entrusted money to Madoff were forced to close their doors. As Sandy Koufax scratches his head...

Why are business processes seen as being handed down from on high? This week, the JargonSpy argues that business processes are like wild animals. They should be stalked, crept up on and then captured. If we take a step back and look at wisdom discovered through hard experience or passed down from the leading lights of engineering, one thing is clear: Engineers have become a lot more humble. (See ' The Humble Developer .') While the flash of insight is and always will be where creation happens, the link between that which has been imagined, and that which works is now recognized to be a lot more tenuous. Fred Brooks, author of The Mythical Man Month , teaches us to plan to learn from the pro...

The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals. We are all familiar with a Herd of cows, a Flock of chickens, a School of fish and a Gaggle of geese. However, less widely known is a Pride of lions, a Murder of crows (as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens), an Exaltation of doves and, presumably, because they look so wise, a Parliament of owls. Now consider a gathering of Baboons. They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates. And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons? Believe it or not ....... a Congress ! And, of course, the well known collective noun for a group of owls: PARLIAMENT! PS: Pl read it for fun only and without any political trappings. That's why I have put it in "OTHERS" category of Industry and not "POLITICS".

IMPORTANT ADVISORY Do not open any message with an attachment called:"Invitation FACEBOOK", regardless of who sent it. It is a virus that opens an Olympic torch that burns the whole hard disc C of your computer. This virus will be received from someone you had in your address book. That's why you should send this message to all your contacts. It is better to receive this email 25 times than to receive the virus and open it. If you receive E-MAIL called: "Invitation FACEBOOK", though sent by a friend, do not open it and delete it immediately. CNN said it is a new virus discovered recently and that has been classified by Microsoft as the most destructive virus ever. It is a Trojan Horse that asks you to install an adobe flash plug-in. Once you install it, it's all over. And there is no repair yet for this kind of virus. This virus simply destroys the Zero Sector of the Hard Disc, where the vital information of their function is saved. Do not open any message with an...

I refuse to respond to TROLLS. Pl see my earlier post on THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COMPANY THAT ANNA HAZARE KEEPS and as you read some of the ballistic comments you will understand what I mean. As Sachin says "Let my bat do the talking", so here I am with another food for thought on Anna Hazare's campaign. I have stated that earlier, and I repeat ad nauseam now also, that I have no doubt in my mind that Anna's campaign is the bitter medicine that this scams-ridden nation and the UPA II government badly need. He is doing a good job -- the scavenger's job. The nation should be grateful to him and I salute his spirit and his well-meaning intent. More than anyone else, it is ANNA HAZARE who needs to be given BHARAT RATNA. Anna ji hi hain aaj ke asli Gandhi. However, journalism has taught me an important thing: never to get bowled over by one side howsoever convincing and appealing that side might be. So here I am with some more questions. I repeat once again that these probing...
