Today’s data consumer can be just about anyone, from the CEO to the retail floor associate. With information assets sprawling across the enterprise and the Web, bringing them all together into a single, accessible view can turn into an onerous process. But when users are given access to data from cloud applications and on-premise data sets, every decision from the top down can be information-driven.
Register for this episode of The Briefing Room to learn from MIT Analyst Barbara Wixom, who will explain how leveraging the cloud as a delivery mechanism can play a key role in generating business value and insight. She will be briefed by Suzanne Hoffman of Tableau, who will show how Tableau Online can help analysts and consumers uncover the value of data. She’ll discuss how the advantage of connecting cloud-based applications with other data sources can drive decisions faster and help businesses stay nimble.
