Don’t Move Your Data to the Analytics, Bring the Analytics to Your Data!
On Premise

The journey to the cloud puts analytics adoption under pressure
Analytics adoption challenge
• On average, less than 20% of users have access to analytics
• Digitization aims to dramatically increase this number and empower users to make fact-based decisions
• BI administrators and power users are wondering “how to make the right analytics available to users”
“What analytics do I need? Where can I find them?”
• Analytics are scattered around in multiple systems, on premise and now in the cloud
• Users may not know the link, don’t have a login, and may only be authorized to a few analytics
• They don’t know the analytics that they don’t have access to, how to discover them and request access?
“Which analytics report can I trust?”
• What is the content of this report? What is the data source used?
• Where is the documentation on how the measures are calculated or how the data is filtered?
• Who authored and certified this analytic? How often is the data refreshed? Who else use it?

Consolidate access to analytics from multiple hybrid systems…
