While BI sessions by Dr Sunil Ladkawala is in full swing , I came across an open-source BI tool
DecisionStudio Professional, a desktop BI platform
Thats quite a shocker , you can practically run( ruin ! ) your business with opensource.
In fact , am planning to make an application portfolio for an imaginary organisation ,comprising only of open-source softwares
Lets see !

" an advanced and comprehensive data mining, reporting, modeling, and analysis environment that is empowering individuals and organization to actualize their highest potential through data-mining, Analytics, and Business Intelligence."

Nisheet a BI Consultant and Director at DecisionStudio has a fantastic blog on Open Source Analytics at
