Summary
Dresner introduced business intelligence in the year 1989, as an umbrella term that “describe a set of concepts and methods to improve business decision making by using fact-based support systems” (Power, 2007). Business intelligence is an environment in which ‘marrying’ business knowledge and data mining provides great results (Anand, Bell, and Hughes, 1995; Cody, Kreulen, Krishna, and Spangler, 2002; Weiss, Buckley, Kapoor, and Damgaard, 2003; Graco, Semenova, and Dubossarsky, 2007). Alnoukari considers business intelligence as "a framework that helps organizations managing, developing and communicating their information and knowledge. It can be considered as an imperative framework in the current knowledge-based economy arena" (Alnoukari, 2012). Weiss et al 2003 define business intelligence as the “combination of data mining, data warehousing, knowledge management, and traditional decision support systems” (Weiss, Buckley, Kapoor, & Damgaard, 2003). Business intelligence systems can have multiple benefits including: faster access to information, big data complexes, increasing revenue, better customer satisfaction and generating or improving competitiveness of enterprises (Brinkmann, 2015)
