"IF you could peal away all the sales rhetoric, marketing hype, and mis-communications associated with 'typical' BI tool investigative research, you will come face-to-face with the pragmatic and unbiased information necessary to make the right decisions for your organization.
Michael Gonzales' unprecedented insight coupled with his depth and breadth of up-to-the-minute experience revolutionizes the process a BI architect is faced with when shopping for BI toolsets.
It's no wonder BI product vendors are lining up to offer up their products for a place in his HandsOn courses. Michael's unbiased demonstration of BI products has saved my organization countless hours in false starts and time searching for right-fit BI products. His branding of 'HandsOn' typifies what Michael is all about and what he has to offer within the BI market space."

"Michael Gonzales is an incredibly gifted communicator and the consumate
professional.
Geographic Information System (GIS) mapping technology is a complicated subject. Experienced
journalists have difficulty with the subject because GIS technology is difficult even for IT
professionals. Michael, however, is the most effective writer I've ever worked with at translating
the benefits of GIS terminology for a mainstream IT audience. He's tackled this communications
challenge with enthusiasm and proficiency, and it's been a pleasure to work with him for the last
four years."

What People Say About Mike's Book, IBM Data Warehousing

"This book delivers both depth and breadth, a highly unusual combination in the
business intelligence field. It not only describes the intricacies of various IBM products, such
as IBM DB2, IBM Intelligent Miner, and IBM DB2 OLAP, but it also sets the context for these
products by providing a comprehensive overview of data warehousing architecture, analytics, and
data management."

"Organizations today are faced with a 'data deluge' about customers, suppliers,
partners, employees and competitors. To survive and to prosper requires an increasing commitment to
information management solutions. Michael Gonzales' book provides an outstanding look at business
intelligence software from IBM that can help companies excel through quicker, better-informed
business decisions. In addition to a comprehensive exploration of IBM's data warehouse, OLAP,
data mining and spatial analysis capabilities, Michael clearly explains the organizational and
data architecture underpinnings necessary for success in this information-intensive
age."
