Magic Quadrant (MQ) refers to a series published by IT consulting firm Gartner of market research reports that rely on proprietary qualitative data analysis methods to demonstrate market trends, such as direction, maturity and participants.
Positioning Technology Players Within a Specific MarketWhich are the competing players in the major technology markets? How are they positioned to help you over the long haul? A Gartner Magic Quadrant is a culmination of research in a specific market, giving you a wide-angle view of the relative positions of the market's competitors. By applying a graphical treatment and a uniform set of evaluation criteria, a Magic Quadrant helps you quickly ascertain how well technology providers are executing their stated visions and how well they are performing against Gartner's market view.
1. Project Gemini is the Analysis Services
2. It is next version of Analysis Services, which will ship before SQL11, as part of SQL Server “Kilimanjaro”
3. It uses column oriented processing and in memory storage as core technological principals
The 1st wave of BI, what is often called "traditional BI", required IT support to serve the end users in their quest for data analysis. You probably all have that in your organization - an Analysis Services pulling data from various data sources in the data warehouse and doing some complex modeling to provide processed data which was then consumed through Excel or other analysis tools. This is an amazing technology, which launched the BI capabilities of organizations lightyears ahead and provided real data driven decision making. But the life cycle of those requests were often months, for altering the model, which made the actions that were taken from the data driven decisions less effective.
Then came the 2nd wave, what is called the "self-service BI", which allowed the business analysts to analyze data on the fly and provide value to the end user. This is also familiar to all of you, since this is what all of us are doing when we analyze data in Excel, for example, or the more analysis focused tools like Tableau or Qlik.
These 1st and 2nd wave solutions and tools are still super important for BI, and will remain so for many years to come. They are part of the what the 3rd wave of BI is providing, and that is "BI for everyone". It is the ability of the end user to get data, analyze it, and gain insights with almost no technical skills. It does not replace the other two waves, it is built on top of them, to provide a better BI solution to end users in the organization.
