Data Modernization and Mobile BI
Data Modernization is no more a fat fetched concept. Instead, it is the core of modern-day business organizations. For long, industry experts have searched for solutions that would help them transform their operations in a way benefitting all. The fourth wave of industrialization brought with itself multiple technologies, each of which aims at achieving the above.
To define, data modernization is all about moving enterprise data from the siloed infrastructure to modern databases, one that regulates better storage, access, and retrieval of data. The advent of application modernization bestowed organizations with the responsibility of revamping their existing infrastructure to house modern data systems and stay ahead in the competition.
It is seen that the present-day databases are not only competent but also adept in structuring and analyzing raw data to render meaningful insights. Not to forget the ease provided by them to access data at any point in time. While this may sound fascinating, it isn’t the end. To add more power to modern-day databases, experts are now vesting their money and trust in a fairly new concept as Mobile BI.

Business Usecases: Mobile BI in action
Wondering how can Mobile BI be useful in real-time?
● Decision Makers: From the team leaders to the department head and the managers, they are bestowed with the responsibility of taking decisions. While the traditional method would force them to be present in the office, get the data shared on the system and then study the same to strike a conversation, mobile BI empowers them with the ease to access data at their convenience and make decisions on the go.
● Executive Dashboard: Having all of the information displayed on the dashboard, executives must drill down the information to get to an agreement. With mobile BI, they can use their spare time to scroll down the KPIs, get information, and act accordingly.
● Customer-facing employees: Apparently the ones that benefit the most from mobile BI solutions. These employees aren’t available at their desk 24/7. Either they are on the field or with a customer or traveling to/from a meeting. Imagine that while they are outside the office but want to access a customer’s data to close a deal. Mobile BI here comes to the rescue. Even though the employee is not inside the office, he/she has access to all data and reports which can then be used to connect to the customer and win their trust.
