Business Intelligence

 
Updated on Sep 29, 2020

In a 1958 article, IBM researcher Hans Peter Luhn used the term business intelligence. He defined intelligence as: "the ability to apprehend the interrelationships of presented facts in such a way as to guide action towards a desired goal."

In 1989 Howard Dresner (later a Gartner Group analyst) proposed BI as an umbrella term to describe "concepts and methods to improve business decision making by using fact-based support systems." It was not until the late 1990s that this usage was widespread.

Business Intelligence (BI) refers to computer-based techniques used in spotting, digging-out, and analyzing business data; such as sales revenue by products or departments or associated costs and incomes.

BI technologies provide historical, current, and predictive views of business operations. Common functions of Business Intelligence technologies are reporting, online analytical processing, analytics, data mining, business performance management, benchmarking, text mining, and predictive analytics.

Business Intelligence often aims to support better business decision-making. Thus a BI system can be called a <b>decision support system</b> (DSS).[3] Though the term business intelligence is often used as a synonym for competitive intelligence, because they both support decision making, BI uses technologies, processes, and applications to analyze mostly internal, structured data and business processes while competitive intelligence, is done by gathering, analyzing and disseminating information with or without support from technology and applications, and focuses on all-source information and data (unstructured or structured), mostly external to, but also internal to a company, to support decision making.

PrimeChess.org makes elite chess training accessible and affordable for everyone. For the past 6 years, we have offered free chess camps for kids in Singapore and India, and during that time, we also observed many average-rated coaches charging far too much for their services.

To change that, we assembled a team of top-rated coaches including International Masters (IM) or coaches with multiple IM or GM norms, to provide online classes starting from $50 per month (8 classes each month + 4 tournaments)

This affordability is only possible if we get more students. This is why it will be very helpful if you could please pass-on this message to others.

Exclucively For Indian Residents: 
Basic - ₹1500
Intermediate- ₹2000
Advanced - ₹2500
