Business intelligence for all Cognos 10

Cognos 10 BI

IBM Cognos BI provides users with many options to access information. Each
option uses common functions and interfaces. Executives can take IBM Cognos
Active reports offline to keep working while out of the office. Information
consumers and executives can access reports, charts, and other business
intelligence objects using dashboards from IBM Cognos Business Insight. IBM
Cognos Advanced Business Users and Professional Report Authors can use
IBM Cognos Business Insight Advanced to create new IBM Cognos BI objects
and to analyze information from any source and from new perspectives. Users
familiar with office productivity tools can use IBM Cognos Analysis for MS Excel
to blend the power of IBM Cognos BI information with the personal workspace of
Excel. Users on the go can use IBM Cognos Mobile to stay connected to their
IBM Cognos BI information.

IBM Cognos 10 Redbook link and new features details

IBM Cognos 10 RedBook
Link to the Book
http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg247912.pdf


Some of the Feature I like:

New dynamic query capability. Optimized caching, in-memory calculations, 3x faster query

Cognos admins can export all system metrics to a RDBMS and then analyze with Business Insight(new Dashboard tool integrated in COgnos 10).

The UI works very well and looks very well thought out.

Allows end user to manage their own login credentials reducing the load on IT.

we should more intensively use upgrade manager

Improved content manager performance through caching and faster olap in memory caching

New external data wizard for Cognos10 Report Studio. A feature that supports and encourages agile development

No more messy javascript to modify prompt object text - they are now modifiable properties in cognos10 (this is the best)
