Take Part in the BI Survey 15, and Have Your Voice Heard!

Long-term readers of this blog will know that we’ve supported for many years the BI Survey, an independent survey of BI tools customers and implementors. Rittman Mead have no (financial or other) interest in the BI Survey or its organisers, but we like the way it gathers in detailed data on which tools work best and when, and it’s been a useful set of data for companies such as Oracle when they prioritise their investment in tools such as OBIEE, Essbase and the BI Applications.

Here’s the invite text and link to the survey:

“We would like to invite you to participate in The BI Survey 15, the world’s largest annual survey of business intelligence (BI) users.

  • Receive a summary of the results from the survey when it is published
  • Be entered into a draw to win one of ten $50 Amazon vouchers
  • Ensure that your experiences are included in the final analyses

Business and technical users, as well as vendors and consultants, are all welcome to participate.
You will be able to answer questions on your usage of a BI product from any vendor and your experience with your service provider.
The BI Survey 15 is strictly vendor-independent: It is not sponsored by any vendor and the results are analyzed and published independently. 
Your answers will be used anonymously and your personal details will not be passed on to software vendors or other third parties.
The BI Survey 15 should take about 20 minutes to complete. For further information, please contact Adrian Wyszogrodzki at BARC (awyszogrodzki@barc.de).

Rittman Mead BI Forum 2015 Now Open for Registration!

I’m very pleased to announce that the Rittman Mead BI Forum 2015, running in Brighton and Atlanta in May 2015, is now open for registration.

Back for its seventh successful year, the Rittman Mead BI Forum once again will be showcasing the best speakers and presentations on topics around Oracle Business Intelligence and data warehousing, with two events running in Brighton, UK and Atlanta, USA in May 2015. The Rittman Mead BI Forum is different to other Oracle tech events in that we keep the numbers attending limited, topics are all at the intermediate-to-expert level, and we concentrate on just one topic – Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition, and the technologies and products that support it.

As in previous years, the BI Forum will run on two consecutive weeks, starting in Brighton and then moving over to Atlanta for the following week. Here’s the dates and venue locations:

This year our optional one-day masterclass will be delivered by Jordan Meyer, our Head of R&D, and myself and will be on the topic of “Delivering the Oracle Big Data and Information Management Reference Architecture” that we launched last year at our Brighton event. Details of the masterclass, and the speaker and session line up at the two events are on the Rittman Mead BI Forum 2015 homepage

Each event has its own agenda, but both will focus on the technology and implementation aspects of Oracle BI, DW, Big Data and Analytics. Most of the sessions run for 45 minutes, but on the first day we’ll be holding a debate and on the second we’ll be running a data visualization “bake-off” – details on this, the masterclass and the keynotes and our special guest speakers will be revealed on this blog over the next few weeks – watch this space!

EPM and BI Meetup at Next Week’s Openworld (and details of our Oracle DI Speakeasy)

Just a short note to help publicise the Oracle Openworld 2014 EPM and BI Meetup that’s running next week, organised by Cameron Lackpour and Tim Tow from the ODTUG board.

This is an excellent opportunity for EPM and BI developers and customers to get together and network over drinks and food, and chat with members of the ODTUG board and maybe some of the EPM and BI product management team. It’s running at Piattini, located at 2331 Mission St. (between 19th St & 20th St), San Francisco, CA 94110 from 7pm to late and there’s more details at this blog post by Cameron. The turnout should be pretty good, and if you’re an EPM or BI developer looking to meet up with others in your area this is a great opportunity to do so. Attendance is free and you just need to register using this form.

Similarly, if you’re into data warehousing and data integration you might be interested in our Rittman Mead / Oracle Data Integration’s Speakeasy event, running on the same evening (Tuesday September 30th 2014) from 7pm – 9pm at Local Edition, 691 Market St, San Francisco, CA. Aimed at ODI, OWB and data integration developers and customers and featuring members of the Rittman Mead team and Oracle’s Data Integration product team, again this is a great opportunity to meet with your peers and share stories and experiences. Registration is free and done through this registration form, with spaces still open at the time of posting.
