Abstract:
This paper examines which terms are used for analytical information systems in business practice and how their use has developed over time. For this purpose, a total of 3,000 German job openings from 2017 to 2022 are subjected to a frequency analysis. Eight relevant generic terms are identified and divided into first- and second-order generic terms based on their definition of relevance to practice. A detailed examination of the common occurrence of the generic terms and the change in their use over time shows that the traditional term Business Intelligence continues to dominate in practice and that the terms Artificial Intelligence and Data Science are becoming increasingly established in a more technical context. More specific terms, such as Advanced Analytics, Machine Learning and Data Mining, on the other hand, are becoming less important for describing analytical information systems.
