Welcome to BI Tools and Techniques

This blog has been created to provide assistance as well as an ongoing record of the Projects undertaken as part of the Business Intelligence Tools and Techniques Course at IIM Calcutta. The course co-coordinators are Prof Asim Pal and Prof Ambuj Mahanti.

I am Myshkin Ingawale, your Teaching Assistant for this course. You may fire all your project related queries at me, and thereby give me the opportunity to either display my profound ignorance or more hopefully, guide you along the path to Business Intelligence Awesomeness.

While, generally speaking, anything goes as far as type, quantity and quality of posts on this blog is concerned, you are requested to follow the following guidelines:

  1. Respect other people's posts: Do not Edit any posts bar your own.
  2. Please make sure you have something substantial to say either about your project or about the subject in general before you initiate a new post here. Short conversations and requests for info (on deadlines, quizzes, tools for Total World Domination, etc) are for the BB or the Comments section.
  3. While posting Project related information (such as Project Proposal) , please Title your post by the name and number of your project, team number and submission type. E.g: Financial Crisis | Project No xx | Team No xx | Project Proposal
  4. As your project proceeds along its way, feel free to add matter to your existing project post rather than creating a brand new post for every new change made to the project.
  5. Data Redundancy makes for Reliability: Keep a Doc copy of important submissions like Project Proposal, etc on your harddrive.
