About Client
In this case study, we delve into the journey of a leading private research university located in the vibrant San Francisco Bay Area. Read more to learn how the institution leveraged BI Connector to streamline its data analysis processes, enhance security, and achieve significant efficiency gains in managing student data.
The Challenge
The university used OBIEE as the central repository for all student data. However, its ad-hoc analysis of student data was slow and data remained stale.
- A laborious and error-prone export/import ETL process that led to inconsistent analysis results.
- Cumbersome process of merging existing data with various other data sources.
- Data security issues
The Solution
Using BI Connector, the university was able to directly connect OBIEE with Tableau and visualize the data in real time.
BI Connector enabled them to slice and dice enrollment figures, retention rates, graduation rates, and other key metrics, streamlining the process of ad-hoc analysis.
With our help, the client could automate reports, dashboards and storyboards for data analysis, improving efficiency and reducing operations costs.
