Empowering Collaborative Business Intelligence by the use of Online Social Networks

Abstract

Online Social Networks (OSNs) gain more and more attention in nearly all systems or concepts that deal with the exchange of information between human actors. While the analysis process in Business Intelligence systems normally is based on structured and pre-filtered data, OSNs promise a lot of customer insights for companies. On the other hand, OSNs are a common product used by the analysts themselves to interconnect and discuss. Therefore they may serve the inter-human exchange about the analyzed figures and support collaboration of the users. We show how OSNs can support the collaboration and communication in a joint analysis process and prove the feasibility with a small prototype.
