This white paper explains the importance of web-based business intelligence, which provides support to large user communities. The strategic need to deploy high-value business intelligence solutions to very large user communities drives organizations to choose solutions and supporting architectures that can meet and exceed demands, and can grow as the company grows. Any solution that is Web-enabled is not, by definition, ready for the masses. It is very important that the supporting architecture leverages the strengths of the Web, exploits its fundamental principle of statelessness, and enables scalability to address the needs of many thousands of users.
