Agile Methodologies for Business Intelligence

Agile methodologies were introduced in 2001. Since this time, practitioners have tried to create and apply Agile methodologies to many delivery disciplines. This chapter will explore the application of Agile methodologies and principles to business intelligence delivery. The practice of business intelligence delivery with an Agile methodology has yet be proven to the point of maturity and stability; this chapter will outline Agile principles and practices that have emerged as best practices and formulate a framework to outline how an Agile methodology could be applied to business intelligence delivery.
