Forrester collects business intelligence buzzwords

Forrester says “It’s time to reinvent your BI strategy.” No argument there. And they have an article, charts, and a white paper to back it up. A lot of the details are quite dubious, like the chart in which they declared that columnar RDBMS aren’t relational. Still, the article is worth surveying to see if you have any “I hadn’t thought of that!” moments.

I particularly like this diagram, which has 27 layers, containing approximately 2 1/2 BI-related buzzphrases each.
