Business Intelligence Survey Updated

Nigel Pendse has renamed his OLAP Survey to the BI Survey.  Major players in BI, including Microsoft rely on the data in this survey to analyze consumer needs.  From the invitation:

We would very much welcome your participation in The BI Survey. This is the largest independent survey of business intelligence/OLAP users worldwide. The Survey will obtain input from a large number of users to better understand their buying decisions, the implementation cycle and the business success achieved. Both business and technical respondents are welcome.

See Nigel in action, talking about the newest release of his survey.

PerformancePoint Planning Must Read

This series of posts was brought to my attention by Ben Tamblyn and outlines a very practical understanding of PerformancePoint Planning.  A series of four articles, Adrian Downes has taken the time to shed some light on not only the features of PPS Planning, but the business models that drive them.  Good stuff.

1. Setting the stage (Budgeting 101)
2. Configuring the Application (Introducing the Planning Administration Console)
3. Defining the Model (Introducing Planning Business Modeler)
4. Defining Business Rules
