Business Requirements
Information systems automate operational, everyday tasks. Applications and automated processes represent the lowest layer of the logical architecture of the IS. During operation, vast amounts of data are generated in these layers. It is necessary to generate reports from this data that can assist managers at all levels in decision-making.
Therefore, a new layer, called BI (Business Intelligence), is introduced above these two layers of the IS, enabling the previously mentioned capabilities.
