For Enterprise Architecture ProfessionalsThe Forrester Wave : Enterprise Insight PlatformSuites, Q4 2016The Seven Providers That Matter Most And How They Stack Upby Brian HopkinsDecember 7, 2016Why Read This ReportKey TakeawaysInsight platforms that combine data management,analytics, and insight execution tools were 2016’stop emerging technology priority according toenterprise architects. In our 30-criteria evaluationof enterprise insight platform suite providers, weidentified, researched, analyzed, and scored theseven most significant vendors in the market —IBM, Oracle, Pivotal Software, SAP, SAS, TIBCOSoftware, and Teradata. These vendors havecomprehensive suites of technology they positionas a platform for data management, analytics,and insight execution. This report shows howeach provider measures up and helps enterprisearchitects make the right choice.SAS Leads The Pack, With TIBCO Software AClose SecondForrester’s research uncovered a market in whichSAS leads the pack. TIBCO Software, Oracle, andPivotal Software offer competitive options. SAP,IBM, and Teradata lag a bit but were also close toreaching our Strong Performer group.Enterprise Architecture (EA) Pros Are LookingFor Platforms They Can TrustThe enterprise insight platform suites segment isgrowing because customers have struggled withopen source and a bevy of startups, and theyneed a platform they can trust with their mostdemanding enterprise applications.High Performers Differentiate Themselves BySupporting Insight-To-ExecutionSAS, TIBCO Software, and Pivotal Softwaredifferentiated themselves in our evaluation witha clear vision of offering an insight platform thatsupports the implementation of insight at the pointof decision. Other vendors in the study exhibitedsome elements of this vision but focused primarilyon offering a number of separate tools without aplatform unification strategy.forrester.com

For Enterprise Architecture ProfessionalsDecember 7, 2016The Forrester Wave : Enterprise Insight Platform Suites, Q4 2016The Seven Providers That Matter Most And How They Stack UpInsight Platforms Are 2016’s Top Emerging Tech PriorityYour business is balancing many demands. Investors want revenue growth and cost reduction, andin response, business and technology decision-makers prioritize digital transformation to improvecustomer experiences, products, and services that satisfy customers’ ever-increasing expectations.1They want insight from more data to drive outcomes that make a difference to balance sheets andprofit/loss statements — they have little time for the complex reality of big data. Yet EA pros areembroiled in that reality. There are simply too many immature and partially integrated technologiesrequired. Hadoop has already become a widely adopted platform to manage big data. But to get value,your firm will likely also need other tools like Spark, Kafka, MongoDB, streaming analytics, search andknowledge management, natural language processing (NLP), and a data science platform.With so many technology choices, what you need is a simplified way to develop and deploy dataanalytics applications that meet your firm’s thirst for insights at the moment of the most importantcustomer and employee decisions. In other words, your business needs technology that lets it easilybuild and evolve systems of insight.2 You need an insight platform, a term that has struck a chord withboth enterprise architects and vendors (see Figure 1). 2016 Forrester Research, Inc.

For Enterprise Architecture ProfessionalsDecember 7, 2016The Forrester Wave : Enterprise Insight Platform Suites, Q4 2016The Seven Providers That Matter Most And How They Stack UpEnterprise Insight Platform Suites Evaluation OverviewTo assess the state of the enterprise insight platform suites market and see how the vendors stackup against each other, Forrester evaluated the strengths and weaknesses of seven top vendors. Afterexamining past research, user-need assessments, and vendor and expert interviews, we developed acomprehensive set of 30 evaluation criteria, which we grouped into three high-level buckets:›› Current offering. Forrester scored each vendor’s current data management and analyticscapabilities, considering both breadth and quality capabilities and using past Forrester Waveevaluations and the results of a reference customer survey and interviews as inputs (see Figure 3).3We further evaluated the vendor’s ability to operationalize insight by hosting insight applications,caching insights for rapid access, and providing integration tools. Next we considered the vendor’scapabilities for creating closed-loop, continuously optimized systems of insight. For example, welooked at the vendor’s tools for running experiments, measuring and learning, and delivering in anagile, DevOps style.4 Finally, we considered how well the vendor’s suite of components installed,operated, and scaled as a platform.›› Strategy. Forrester scored each vendor’s strategy first by assessing their vision for transformingtheir offerings into a platform, weighting heavily 2017 vendor commitments to reducing componentsprawl, and simplifying installation, upgrades, scaling, security, metadata, and overall management(see Figure 4). We also evaluated the vendor’s leadership, vision, and plans to improve criticalcapabilities around important trends. We considered big data, real time, hybrid cloud, systems ofinsight, and data security and privacy, adjusting scores based on reference customer surveys andinterviews. We also considered the vendor’s intellectual property, cost, and channel ecosystem.›› Market presence. Forrester scored each vendor’s market presence based on the installed base ofcustomers, revenues, and global presence. 2016 Forrester Research, Inc.

For Enterprise Architecture ProfessionalsDecember 7, 2016The Forrester Wave : Enterprise Insight Platform Suites, Q4 2016The Seven Providers That Matter Most And How They Stack Up›› SAS offers a balance between strength of current offering and a platform strategy. SAShas best-in-class analytics coupled with a breadth of good data management for streaming,virtualization, and master data management. It has made progress simplifying its tools, and itsrecently launched SAS Viya offers promises to go even further in modernizing and simplifying itsarchitecture.6 The vendor’s platform features integrated metadata and tools for executing insights,including a customer analytics and decision management solution. Firms that are already usingSAS for analytics or looking to simplify their heterogeneous data management and analyticsarchitecture should consider embracing SAS Viya as an enterprise insight platform as more of itrolls out in 2017.SAS’s weaknesses stem from its strengths. For years, SAS built its own advanced tools becauseit was the only game in town. Now it’s facing a huge modernization effort as its components age,competitors spring up, and customers demand better support for languages like Python. SAS 9has several different analytic engines, a proprietary metadata repository, and grid infrastructure thatcan be tricky to install and manage. Reference customers also told us of complex and long-runninginstallations and needing professional services just to install routine patches.Strong Performers Go Beyond Big Data Analytics With Platform InnovationsOur Strong Performer group stood out from the Contender pack in several ways. TIBCO Softwareand Oracle have both performed superbly in previous Forrester Wave evaluations of individualproduct categories in data management and analytics. In this evaluation, TIBCO and Pivotal Softwaredemonstrated strong strategies for simplifying and making their platform more flexible and easier toacquire, manage, scale, and upgrade.›› Oracle features top data management, analytics, and customer feedback. Oracle fairedextremely well in previous Forrester Wave evaluations for data management and advancedanalytics for data at rest and in motion. The company also had exceptionally strong referencecustomer ratings in this evaluation, especially in areas like unified metadata, security, andgovernance where other participants were weak. Furthermore, its prebuilt business apps forbusiness intelligence (BI) have no real competitors. Oracle has moved quickly to embracemanaged, hybrid cloud, and highly virtualized components that are increasingly preintegratedand priced on a subscription or consumption basis. This gives Oracle a credible platform claim;however, the vendor has a ways to go to ensure its offering is simplified and works well with nonOracle technology. Oracle was a partial participant this evaluation.›› Pivotal Software has the best platform strategy, which offsets some weaknesses. Pivotal’svision of implementing a simplified and scalable big data platform, with both data-at-rest anddata-in-motion capabilities, will appeal to tech managers, while its software is loaded with toolsto help developers create flexible, microservice-oriented data analytics applications. Pivotalfeatures a leading in-memory data grid for insight execution and OEM of Alpine Data Labs for datapreparation and predictive analytics. It also has done significant integration work with Spring Cloud 2016 Forrester Research, Inc.

Firms that want a flexible, scalable, andevolving big data platform for developers and that are willing to work through open source maturityissues should consider this vendor’s offering.Pivotal has significant gaps in its current offering, due in part to open source immaturity but alsobecause of the vendor’s primary focus on developers. It lacks many enterprise data managementcapabilities such as data governance and ETL, which buyers must plug in.7 It also relies on partnersto supply traditional BI or visual analytic front ends. Customer references reported security issuesbetween components and installation issues, even on EMC hardware. Furthermore, the vendor’stools work as a platform primarily when apps are managed via Cloud Foundry.8›› TIBCO Software excels in insights-to-execution backed by positive customer feedback.TIBCO focuses on real-time insight execution coupled with leading streaming and agile BIcomponents. Its platform features deep integration between streaming, visual, and predictiveanalytics that will only get better next year.9 Further
