It is easy to feel like the odd man (or gal) out in the SQL Community. We are constantly hearing about new features, products, and architectures and our companies may not always have the same enthusiasm when we describe what could be. This is probably even more true in the Analytics space as much of the marketing has been pointed in that direction. Even PASS tried to create a conference just for Analytics. While there are some amazing new technologies out there--we might--GASP--not need them in every scenario. Our guest today is Kevin Wilkie, a BI architect with Innovative Architects and he talks to us about some of the tools he uses and spoiler--they aren't all that fancy. He also talks with us about how he manages the tech and business users so each feels comfortable and each can get their work done. The show notes for today's episode are at http://sqldatapartners.com/2016/11/23/BI-Tools/ and we'll see you on the SQL trail!
