Business Intelligence on the Mainframe: Mission-Critical Applications Require Mission-Critical Platform

Overview In the 2007 Harvey Nash Strategic Leadership Survey, 76 percent of CIOs claimed that their roles are becoming more strategic as their companies look to use information to create competitive advantage. This paper discusses operational BI, including what it is, what is requires, and what kind of value it delivers. Additionally, it highlights IBM System z, and what makes it the ideal fit for operational BI environments. And, finally, it will provide some real-world success stories that demonstrate how important operational BI is, and the benefits that can be achieved through the deployment of a comprehensive operational BI strategy using IBM System z.
