SearchCIO's Wayne Eckerson has has just issued an article on "Five Things You Should Know about BI" (where, if you don't know, BI stands for Business Intelligence).
In essence, he is confirming the maxim that people issues are what get in the way when it is time to play in the world of business intelligence: Politics, Lack of available tools, Culture, Costs, and Business volatility are the prime culprits.
It is interesting though to note Philip Howard's viewpoint (from Bloor Research) over at IT-Analysis.com in his article "Do We Need Bambi?" - where Bambi is built around a hypothetical merger of "Business Activity Monitoring" and Business Intelligence.
As if we didn't have enough acronyms in IT - now they're breeding.
