Call it on-demand, software-as-a-service, cloud or whatever, the shift is obvious. Instead of investing in building and maintaining your own infrastructure, buy services delivered in the cloud and pay by subscription.

You can finally stop buying, hosting, configuring, integrating, managing and upgrading data warehouses, analytics engines, report builders, visualization tools, dashboards and BI governance frameworks. And it will no longer take three months to deliver the next dashboard to your marketing team.
