Note: If the intension is to use all the BI slides in this deck, including the following two slides, it is recommended that this slide is taken out, since it may be redundant with the next couple slides. If this slide is used as a standalone slide for expressing the ‘integrated innovation’ story, here are the notes:
So let’s take a look at the key components that make up the Microsoft BI platform at a very high level:
First we have the Microsoft SQL server laying the foundation of the platform. Next we have the application layer, the Microsoft Dynamics line of business management applications, which in orchestration with the Microsoft Office Systems closes the loop of the complete Microsoft BI platform.
Based on our Integrated Innovation effortswe truly support the overall vision by providing Business Insight to ALL employees. Proving that the Microsoft BI key components are simply Better Together!
