Over the past several months, we have presented the research agenda for BI / CPM / Analytics in the Cloud. We’ve discussed benefits and challenges, and have presented Key Issues around BI, CPM and Analytics in the Cloud, as well as drilled into one of those Key Issues. We have also talked about how vendors and users need to progress in the area of Performance Management. We now address the need to tie business and operational processes into Performance Management strategies, and introduce process-based BI in the Cloud.
