I recently caught up with Tim Berglund and had a hip conversation with him regarding open source business intelligence. Tim points out that business intelligence tools have traditionally been a high-cost part of any enterprise’s software inventory (involving lots of golf and armies of consultants); however, options have emerged that allow teams to build credible business intelligence stacks out of entirely open-source components. In this podcast, Tim talks about various tools for ETL, reporting, and analytics like Pentaho and Talend — I really enjoyed our conversation as I definitely learned a few things!
