Competency
Center Development
As organization's work
towards delivering analytic data internally, they usually go through
many stages as they mature. This is well documented in two seminal
documents - Wayne Erickson's "Gauge Your Data Warehousing
Maturity" and Claudia Imhoffs article "Intelligent
Solutions: Lessons from the Farm - Managing the Data Delivery
Process".
These articles allude to the fragmented nature of analytic data
and the struggles to deliver "the single version of the truth".
The reasons for this proliferation is because of the unmanaged
growth of analytic structures in the enterprise due to organizational
dynamics, mergers/acquisitions, internal reorganizations.
This causes:
• redundancy
• inconsistency
• obsolescence
• increased cost with separate hardware,
storage, software
licenses, data feeds, and staff
Competency Center powered
by metaController™ and Infralytics™
A performance management/business intelligence Center of Competence
solution from Full 360 enables global organizations to develop
a more integrated approach to data management.
In other words, a Center of Competence enables your organization
to achieve faster delivery at lower cost, higher quality data,
and better decision-making across the enterprise.
Full 360's services create roadmaps for the successful development
of a centralized BI/CPM competency center by employing a combination
of our metaController product, Infralytics methodology and partner
products to provide an automated assembly line approach to establishing
this competence center. This assembly line approach solves the
core issue of creating competency centers:
Companies who use information cubes often find that existing hardware
resources cannot simultaneously support cube building and queries,
since each processes adversely affects the performance the other.
In an attempt to meet demand, many IT managers must resort to
purchasing additional servers to increase capacity. But, adding
new servers is expensive and slow, so this solution is not responsive
enough to information demands and not sustainable in the long
run.
The Full 360 competency center is capable of supporting an unlimited
number of Hyperion Essbase or HyperRoll cubes leveraging robust,
low-cost Intel hardware.
