There are many books explaining the need for BI, its methodology, and the myriad designs and implementation pathways that can be taken. The missing book is one that covers all of these from start to finish in a complete, detailed, and comprehensive fashion. From justifying the project, gathering requirements, developing the architectural framework, designing the proper approach for BI data models, integrating the data, generating advanced analytics, dealing with “shadow systems,” understanding and dealing with organizational relationships, managing the full project life cycle, and finally creating centers of excellence—this book covers the entire gambit of creating a sustainable BI environment.
