You noticed that many of the M&A’s are reporting and BI-related? If 2007 is the year of the SOA/BPMs, then 2008 is when we will see a lot more BI-related sales. I’ve always thought it was strange that reporting and monitoring functions seem understated during vendor pitches on BPMs – what’s BPM without excellent support for reporting to the senior management? – and it looks like they are finally filling up holes in this area.
