Part 6 -- “IBM Cognos 8 Business Intelligence: The Official Guide” Conclusion
The “IBM Cognos 8 Business Intelligence: The Official Guide” walks you through an orientation of performance management and business intelligence fundamentals and then dives into practical examples where you can get hands on experience with using Cognos 8. The book isn’t one dimensional and only focusing on individual tools such as Framework Manager, Report Studio or Cognos Connection and then leaving you guessing how it all fits together. There are enough chapters that will provide you with enough detail if you are only interested in learning more about specific areas such as Analysis Studio, Cognos Administration or creating a drill down report.
If you’re like me and always get coffee spills, like to highlight key pages and throw it into your knapsack when leaving the office each day then you might want to consider buying a used copy from Amazon.com. They are normally 20-30% off of the listed price.
Once you buy your copy then I’d like to get your feedback on where the book can improve.
Happy reading!
