Lumira Recap from ASUG Annual Conference
We had a session last week from SAP and another session from SAP customer Eli Lilly. We also saw preview demos of Lumira 1.17. The usual legal disclaimer applies that things in the future are subject to change.
One new term we learned is trusted data discovery which means the users can still do data discovery but governed by IT. See http://www.news-sap.com/sap-empowers-users-trusted-data-discovery-advanced-insights/
The other item in this session was BusinessObjects Explorer was limited by Flash but Lumira is not.
