Presentation: "BI in the Cloud”
by Steve Dine, Datasource Consulting, LLC

Abstract
There is a great deal of confusion over the definition of cloud computing and it’s benefits to organizations. Many analysts even feel that it has yet to live up to the hype. However, few argue about the Cloud’s potential to change the way computing resources are delivered. In BI in the Cloud, we not only discuss the different definitions of the Cloud, but also provide tangibility by walking through a step-by-step demonstration of setting up a server instance in the Amazon EC2 cloud. We also discuss the potential benefits and challenges of architecting BI solutions in the Cloud as well as present a case study of a BI project implemented entirely in the Cloud.
