Business Finance Homework Help

I’m working on a business discussion question and need an explanation and answer to help me learn.

The role of the business analyst or systems analyst is to help

develop the systems that will solve problems using the business needs or

requirements gathered from employees at various levels. As an informed

user, you should understand the value that these systems bring to an

organization, including staying up-to-date on the latest technologies,

and making informed decisions on new and improved technologies so

management and the business/systems analysts can understand business

needs/requirements.

You will read the closing case “IBM’s Watson”. After reading the case study and completing additional independent research, address the following:

• What is the role of technology in business?
• Provide an example (or examples) of a technology from the glossary being used in business.
