Our Offering
Cosine will provide a full set of IT services to design a Business
Intelligence Solution to fit your special needs and business requirements.
Our solution will consist of a combination of databases and database
management tools that will be used to support management decision making.
We will create a solution by adhering to our data warehousing and
software development methodologies. We will:
- Analyze your systems and the data they collect
- Identify the significant business data and align data needs to your
business objectives
- Extract the data from their original, diverse sources and capture
them in ways meaningful to your organization
- Aggregate the resulting data in a data warehouse database to be used
by analytical applications and user queries
- Setup repositories of data (data marts) based on user
requirements/needs
Typical Project Phases
Our Data Warehousing Methodology prescribes three phases for successfully
building a structured, easily accessible Business Intelligence System:
- Data Extraction, Transformation and Loading.
Extracting data from a variety of sources, transforming it so that it is
consistent and uniform, and load it into data marts and warehouses where
it can be easily accessed by a variety of users with a variety of
objectives and needs.
For example: ORACLE Data Warehouse Builder, SQL Server Data
Transformation Services
- Metadata Generation.
Generating a metadata repository and providing a consistent and reliable
means of access to your data which is drawn from separate sources.
We will include information about how to access specific data, so that
you can quickly manage the data warehouse in-house.
For example: ORACLE RDBMS, SQL Server RDBMS
- Exploitation/Reporting.
Allowing organizations to access, format, and deliver data as meaningful
information to entities or groups both inside and outside the
organization.
Also allowing end users to interact with business information and answer
ad hoc questions themselves, without advanced technical knowledge.
For example: Crystal Reports, ORACLE Discoverer, SQL Server Reporting
Services
Most Importantly
Essentially, BI takes the volume of data your organization collects and
stores, and turns it into meaningful information (reports) that everyone and
anyone can use. With such information readily accessible and comprehensible,
you can see results across departments or sections of your company and
penetrate into the details of information to discover underlying causes of
your business performance.
With business-wide common data definitions you will spend less time
debating the data and more time deciding what to do, and with well-timed
suitable custom reports you see changes as they happen and make the
appropriate decisions at the desirable time.
