Why Architecture Matters

Leading analysts agree: enterprise-scale BI needs an enterprise-class architecture. One that breaks through the limitations of the client/server world. One that enables a quick and simple implementation. One that meets today’s needs and has room to grow. One that allows for enterprise-wide deployment to hundreds of thousands of users.

These are precisely the benefits provided by Cognos 8 Business Intelligence.

Cognos 8 BI is built on the proven and scalable Web services architecture introduced with Cognos ReportNet. It is the only BI product to provide complete BI capabilities, for all users, using all your data.
