Abstract

In this article, an approach to solving the problem of strategic management of a university using an information-analytical system is proposed. The purpose of this article is to describe the roles and ways users interact with the information and analysis system. Methodological basis of the research was made by the technologies of data mining, table and graphic methods of information visualization and also business intelligence tools. As a tool for solving practical problems, the Power BI service is used that allows creating interactive panels and reports on the most important metrics. The practical importance of the materials presented in this article is the definition of the main information flows, the role of the quality management system and the place of the analytical service in the management organization of the university. Methods of storing and transferring data using cloud technologies and data cubes are described. The place of the information-analytical system in the unified corporate information system of the university is determined. The examples of the implementation of the information-analytical system of Al-Farabi KazNU on Power BI cloud platform are presented.
