The primary goal of Business Intelligence is to convert data into actionable information so organizations can make better business decisions.

Common functions of business intelligence applications are reporting, OLAP, analytics, data mining, business performance management, benchmarks, text mining, and predictive analytics.

Business Intelligence 2.0 is a term referring to a new generation of Business Intelligence software that is more proactive than reactive. The first generation of Business Intelligence analyzed information involved in business oriented decisions while the next generation helps make decisions as or before events happen.
