Magic Quadrant for Business Intelligence & Analytics Platforms

Report finds that data discovery is going mainstream...

Key 2013 Gartner Magic Quadrant report findings:

“Gartner sees more organizations building diagnostic analytics that leverage critical capabilities such as interactive visualization to enable users to drill more easily into the data to discover new insights.”

“This emphasis on data discovery from most of the leaders in the market—which are now promoting tools with business-user-friendly data integration, coupled with embedded storage and computing layers (typically in-memory/columnar) and unfettered drilling—accelerates the trend toward decentralization and user empowerment of BI and analytics, and greatly enables organizations' ability to perform diagnostic analytics.”†
