Empowering business users with self-service analytics


Big data is becoming an integral part of nearly every organization and business. It’s spreading so rapidly, organizations are finding it difficult to manage with a limited number of data science professionals. Enter self-service analytics.

Self-service analytics can be defined as a simplified, scaled down form of business intelligence (BI). This gives business users the ability to access relevant information, perform evaluations and generate reports themselves with the help of easy-to-use BI tools.

In today’s fast-paced world with technology at our finger tips, businesses often need to have real time access to their insights and reporting without waiting for a consultant to produce a report. The purpose of self-service analytics is to enable business users to perform day-to-day reporting themselves, freeing up time for data scientists to work on more strategic initiatives.

Effective information management is vital for effective self-service analytics, as it helps ensure data is accurate, aligned with business objectives and used to drive better business decisions. A few ways for businesses to manage their own data include visualizing the reuse and storage of data and centralizing the management of the information. With a smaller, centralized footprint, businesses dramatically improve data management in three key areas:

  • Less time required for processing
  • Improved security since the management is centralized, even with distributed                access
  • More accurate results and insights
