WHAT IS BUSIMESS INTELIGENCE TOOLS?

Are types of application software designed to retrieve, analyze and report data for business
intelligence. The tools generally read data that have been previously stored, often, though not
necessarily in a data warehouse or data mart.
Following are the two tools which we have selected for the comparison.

1) SISENCE:
Behind SiSense's drag-and-drop user interface and eye-grabbing visualization options lies a
technology that forever changes the world of business analytics software. By removing
limitations to data size and performance imposed by in-memory and relational databases,
SiSense enables any business to deliver interactive terabyte-scale analytics to thousands of users
within hours.
With a cutting-edge database technology and flexible product architecture, SiSense lets you
benefit from the advantages of having a single source of truth, coupled with blazing-fast multidimensional analytics, without the complexities of traditional data warehousing and OLAP
modeling. And the best part is that you can do it yourself, without a battery of consultants or IT
professionals being involved in every step of the way.
By utilizing modern database technology was built for modern 64-bit hardware and latest CPU
architectures from the ground up, SiSense delivers as-fast or faster performance than in-memory
solutions, without hitting the wall with data volumes or concurrent usage. SiSense utilizes disk,
RAM and CPU so efficiently, that it enables a single commodity server to crunch terabytes of
data on inexpensive hardware, and serve a large number of concurrent users!
SiSense's cutting-edge technology means that a single commodity machine can be used for
terabyte scale analytics and to serve multiple users concurrently. SiSense taps into the true
processing potential of today's 64-bit computer, multi-core CPUs and parallelization capabilities,
enabling a single commodity server to deliver the same data processing power as a cluster made
up of 10 individual nodes, making it a snap to set-up and deploy without any prior expertise in
big data analytics implementations.
Even though SiSense is commercial product with a price tag on software, its total cost is still
lower overall compared to any open source solutions with the same breadth of functionality, if
you include software, hardware and services. All of SiSense's components are tightly integrated
and can be deployed and used by non-developers.
