Peter Scott’s Summary

"A highly talented and experienced Business Intelligence and Data Warehousing consultant with the ability to cross the divide between technical and business consulting"

I have a great passion about data and its value to a business; this is reflected in my blog writings and conference presentations as much as it is in my work as a BI consultant and educator.

Working mainly with Oracle technologies I also have experience of the leading BI and DW offerings from SAP, Netezza, and Microsoft.
