Publisher's summary

Do you want to learn about business intelligence but don't feel like reading a boring textbook?

This audiobook could be the answer you're looking for...

In the modern business world, the pace of action continues to quicken. Businesses need to be able to get actionable insights from their data in order to make the right decisions to act rapidly and effectively.

In this audiobook, you will be introduced to the concept of business intelligence.

Business intelligence is closely connected to data, and so as part of our journey, we are going to see how modern companies are using big data, together with artificial intelligence, machine learning, and pattern recognition in order to build systems of data-driven decision making.

After we get a handle on what business intelligence is, we will learn how it ties together with the next computer revolution (happening right before our eyes). We will discuss the use of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and pattern recognition to retrieve insights from the large amounts of data that companies are routinely collecting, storing, and using.

We will also explore the roles that social media and internet marketing are playing in the growth of business intelligence, and how companies like Facebook are helping other companies act on data in powerful ways.

Here's just a tiny fraction of what you'll discover:

Five Stars

This is not for someone looking for expression or report building help. it has none of that. it is just basic info as to what BI is and what a manager would like to use the reporting function for. not build the reports.

Good One

Early studies indicate this is a good place for a BI neophyte to start. A general grasp of databases and programming would help plow through the material fairly quickly.

Great conceptual book to understand the different areas of data science / big data.

Good job at explaining most concepts of big data at a high level. This is not a technical book
