Abstract
As data becomes more accessible and an increasing number of organizations seek to monitor their business activities, the need for reliable Business Intelligence (BI) solutions arises. This thesis is centered around a small/ medium-sized company that provides e-learning solutions. A new BI system is requested with the main purpose of providing an overview of data used for licensing. In addition, the user activity among customers is of interest as a measure of customer satisfaction. The thesis applies theories of Data Warehousing and data analysis to the aforementioned case. Different tools suitable for an implementation are compared and evaluated. Thereafter a prototype using the chosen tool is developed and applied to enterprise data. A... (More)

A Bus Architecture implemented on a relational database is deemed to be an appropriate design for this type of project. The quality of the prototype is evaluated through its usability and ability to meet business requirements. (Less)
