Infor Birst is an enterprise-grade, cloud BI and analytics platform. It deploys on private and public clouds and supports connectors for various third-party data sources, including other enterprise applications, databases, and local files. It automatically joins data from disparate sources and creates analytics-ready data models with patented automated data refinement technology.
Birst’s Networked BI approach allows both centralized and decentralized teams to collaborate and share data and insights over a networked data fabric, with support from AI, a native cloud multitenant architecture, machine learning, an adaptative UI, and data visualizations. Birst’s value-based design methodology (VBD) can accelerate deployments despite the level of customer-specific customization with industry best practice data models, orchestration pipelines, and prebuilt metrics available out-of-the-box.
Infor Birst supports the entire end-to-end data pipeline process with ETL, data lake/warehousing, API gateways, self-service data prep, in addition to integrated dashboards, data discovery, reporting, and predictive capabilities with AI/ML. This allows customers to support a comprehensive analytics strategy with a lower TCO than a best-of-breed stack approach allows.
Recent product updates and announcements include:
- In January 2021, Birst expanded to include Infor OS to enable a modern data architecture on the platform. The SaaS platform includes data integration, storage, management, preparation tools, and Coleman Machine Learning, federated security, and a single user experience.
- Infor enables in-context analytics with reusable analytic widgets that can be available outside the traditional Birst workflow. The widgets can be embedded in parent applications and are fully interactive with filter, pivot, and drill-down capabilities.
- In March, Birst announced a partnership with Snowflake in which Birst will use its BI tools to allow customers to create automated data warehouses on Snowflake.
Infor Birst is prominent in the enterprise space and is complemented by Infor’s ability to offer applications for every aspect of a business across various industries. It is particularly appealing to companies looking to centralize their data and analytics strategy with a complete digital innovation platform combining the power of Infor OS with Birst. We would expect it to acquire new market share as new enterprise customers increase analytics adoption. Birst is a Leader in this year’s Nucleus Value Matrix for enabling a modern data architecture with an end-to-end platform approach as well as its substantial enterprise penetration.
