Šebák, Ctibor ; Matějka, Martin (advisor) ; Novotný, Ota (referee)
This bachelor thesis is focused on the use of metadata in an environment of Self-Service Business Intelligence. Metadata are structured data that contain information used to de-scribe other data. They contain information about the origin, purpose, location, content and other properties of said data. The main advantage of the self-service BI tools lies in the fact, that the end user customizes the outputs of said tools (reports, data visualizations, etc.) to his own liking. The aim of this thesis is to briefly explain and define the concept of Self-Service Business Intelligence and the concept of metadata, to describe the purpose and benefits of using business metadata. Furthermore, to explore the possibilities of selected tools in context of metadata, more importantly - business metadata. The main contribution of this work is to reveal the possibilities of working with business metadata for selected tools and its empiric testing.
