BI, in the M & A growth?



Recently, IBM announced the acquisition will be 12 million in cash SPSS, a move that set off another wave of M & BI industry. SPSS is a leading provider of forecasting and analysis of software technology services company, the company's sales last year, nearly 303 million U.S. dollars, the product is widely used in market research, finance, sales data analysis and prediction of future behavior in areas such as data mining tools of its production clementine software, user-friendly, easy to operate, in order to SAS as the leading user market place.

From this merger, it seems that BI can see a trend that is increasingly focused on data analysis and the depth of excavation, analysis of the value of the field and competition are increasing.

BI review along the way, M & A cases occur frequently. 2007 was undoubtedly the best heavyweight of the three major M & A event:

March 2007, oracle company about 33 billion in cash buy Hyperion (business performance management software);

October 2007, SAP acquired the company to 6.78 billion U.S. dollars Business Objects (front-end display tools);

November 2007, IBM Corporation 50 billion purchase Cognos (business intelligence and performance planning software).

Other acquisitions include oracle BEA, M & SUN ... ... delves back even more numerous, see the following figure.



Look, it seems that merger is the ultimate way out for small companies, which the software giant consolidation through mergers and acquisitions constantly improving its product line, for users, can have "one-stop" choice was not a bad thing. Only a small BI vendors who compete in this environment is all the more difficult to survive, rely on innovation, alliances, or waiting to be the ultimate acquisition.

According to a recent survey of three different institutions, including Forrester Research, Gartner, and Aberdeen, on business investment in view of the priority survey, BI for the majority of enterprises, all have very high investment priority. There are many reasons, of course, the most fundamental driving force of course, needs 浣跨劧. In the era of information explosion, IT's value lies in the database to collect, process and prediction analysis. Business data, forecasting, analysis and mining is the future of measures is an important aspect of IT. Because the data are more and more massive database every day accumulation, analysis and if they can not derive valuable results, these data will be meaningless, will increasingly become a waste. BI is committed to addressing the huge amounts of data to the effective transformation of business decisions. Even in the present period of economic crisis, BI still can be reduced because of its cost as an investment priority.

BI in the ascendant, this area is also becoming ever more acute competition, mergers and acquisitions, integration and development ... ... BI project success is an accurate grasp of the data, and the business combination and the application of effective promotion. The M & A success or failure depends on customer demand, BI's development can only continue to meet growing customer demand for the. BI, M & A was, that night.
