Welcome to the Malcolm Chisholm Expert Channel on Enterprise Information Management Channel for the BeyeNETWORK.

This channel is dedicated to covering the new generation of organizational units tasked to manage the information assets of enterprises. Each month I will be examining one aspect of what it takes to make these units successful in a business environment that is becoming ever more reliant on data.

I welcome your comments and questions and any suggestions you may have. Please e-mail them to me at mchisholm@refdataportal.com.

Welcome to my expert channel on trends in business intelligence (BI), case studies and my thoughts on business intelligence and business integration. I hope to make use of surveys to track what is happening in the local marketplace and will tap into other parts of the world on occasion to see what is happening in other countries.

I plan to cover most areas of business intelligence including enterprise data management, master data, data integration and data quality, BI tools and services, and performance management. With respect to business integration, I will also look at how combining service-oriented architectures (SOA) and BI Web services is allowing business intelligence to be integrated into mainstream operational business processes. See how BI Web services and event-driven automated analysis are changing the role of BI systems into one where BI is helping operations personnel contribute to business performance. We will look at BI integration with applications, business processes, collaboration and portals to show how BI in a SOA is moving us from business intelligence to intelligent business.

Welcome to the David Loshin Expert Channel on Information Quality and Data Integration for the BeyeNETWORK.

As our business processes depend more and more on effective collaboration through the sharing and exchange of large amounts of high quality information, our reliance on automation for facilitating that collaboration has grown by leaps and bounds. Both the technology and politics of information significantly affect the way organizations handle their information assets, and this channel is intended to provide guidance for all aspects of information and data quality, data standards, data interchange, and data integration. We will focus on business case analysis, best-of-breed technology, future technology trends, architectural issues, best practices, business information productivity, case studies, semantics, and the organizational and cultural impacts of managing the information asset.

Each month, you will find insights, advice, relevant information, news, interviews, and commentary covering the many aspects of information quality and data integration, and perhaps I'll even sneak in some relevant pieces about the future of information management. Your comments and observations (loshin@knowledge-integrity.com) are not just welcomed, but preferred, as a way to enhance the value through our shared experiences. And don't hesitate to send me all of your questions or requests for advice – I intend to make this channel the center point for all aspects of information quality and data integration!

Welcome to the business analytics expert channel for the BeyeNETWORK.

Analytics is truly the next major stage in the business intelligence (BI) evolution, shifting attention from how we deliver information to how we use that information. It is a large, complex field that encompasses statistical analysis, predictive analytics, text and speech analytics, web analytics, visualization, causal analysis and much more. Most importantly, analytics involves people - the business analysts.

I welcome your thoughts, comments and contributions to make this a lively and valuable channel. Please e-mail me at dwells@infocentric.org with your thoughts and ideas.
