INTELLIGENCE
2015 was a year of significant change in the world of

Business Intelligence. More organizations opened up data
to their employees. And more people came to see data
as an important tool to get their work done. Norms about
Business Intelligence are evolving, and as they do, leading
to wholesale cultural change at some workplaces.
This change is driven not only by fast-moving technology,
but also by new techniques to get value from data.
Each year at Tableau we start a conversation about whats
happening thats interesting in the industry. That discussion
drives our list of the top BI trends for the following year.
These are our predictions for 2016.

GOVERNANCE
& SELF-SERVICE
ANALYTICS
BECOME BEST
FRIENDS.
Many people have considered governance

and self-service analytics to be natural enemies.
Maybe thats why those people were surprised
to see governance and self-service having a
drink together. The war is over, and the cultural
gap between business and technology is closing.
Organizations have learned that data governance,
when done right, can help nurture a culture of
analytics and meet the needs of the business.
People are more likely to dig into their data
when they have centralized, clean, and fast data
sources, and when they know that someone (IT)
is looking out for security and performance.

VISUAL
ANALYTICS
BECOMES A
COMMON
LANGUAGE.
Data is changing the conversationin boardrooms, in the media, and in social media.
People are visualizing their data to explore
questions, uncover insights, and share stories
with both data experts and non-experts alike.
As data usage grows, even more people will
turn to data with both professional and personal
questions. And employers will look for candidates
who can think critically with data. Visual analytics
will serve as the common language, empowering
people to reach insights quickly, collaborate
meaningfully, and build a community around data.

THE DATA
PRODUCT CHAIN
BECOMES
DEMOCRATIZED.
The data product chain

becomes
democratized.
Self-service analytics tools have changed peoples
expectations for good. In 2016, people will seek
empowerment across the data continuum,
especially as more millennials enter the workforce.
For business users to stay iterative, they must be
able to shape certain data on the fly. Thats why
the demand for self-service data preparation
tools and even self-service data warehouses
will grow as a natural extension of self-service
analytics. This democratization will allow people
to respond quickly to shifting priorities.

DATA
INTEGRATION
GETS EXCITING.
These days many companies want agile analytics.

They want to get the right data to the right
people, and quickly. This is no small challenge,
because that data lives in many different places.
Working across data sources can be tedious,
impossible, or both. In 2016, well see a lot of
new players in the data integration space.
With the rise of sophisticated tools and the
addition of new data sources, companies will stop
trying to gather every byte of data in the same
place. Data explorers will connect to each data
set where it lives and combine, blend, or join with
more agile tools and methods.

Non-analysts across the organization are

becoming more sophisticated. Theyve come
to expect more than a chart on top of their
data. They want a deeper, more meaningful
analytics experience. Organizations will adopt
platforms that let users apply statistics, ask a
series of questions, and stay in the flow of
their analysis.

CLOUD DATA
& CLOUD
ANALYTICS
TAKE OFF.
In 2015, people began embracing the cloud.

They realized putting data in the cloud is easy
and highly scalable. They also saw that cloud
analytics allows them to be agile. In 2016,
more people will transition to the cloud thanks,
in part, to tools that help them consume web
data. Early adopters are already learning from
this data, and others are realizing they should.
And more companies will use cloud analytics
to analyze more data faster. Theyll come to rely
on it just like any other critical enterprise system.

An increasing number of organizations will

establish a Center of Excellence to foster
adoption of self-service analytics. These centers
play a critical role in implementing a data-driven
culture. Through enablement programs like online
forums and one-on-one training, the centers
empower even non-experts to incorporate data
into their decision-making. Over time, these
centers enable data to inform workflow across
the entire organization.
