Evolution of Data Warehouses into Reporting-as–a-Service (RaaS): Implications for IR and IT Collaboration

Presentation Summary

Data warehouses will continue to evolve into Reporting-as-a-Service (RaaS) and this will require closer collaboration of IT and IR. Increasingly, new entries, such as EAB, CIVITAS, PAR and Helio Campus, among others, are leveraging cloud technology to expedite modeling by transitioning data and reporting to the cloud. This talk will describe RaaS and discuss why this calls for new approaches to campus reporting and decision making, whether institutions outsource, insource, or use a combination in implementing this solution
