Performance Intelligence refers to technologies that utilize standard Business Intelligence techniques on performance-related IT metrics. Traditionally, the performance metrics are loaded into a set of tables that resemble the table structure of a data warehouse. Analysis is performed with standard Business Intelligence techniques such as slicing, dicing, drilling down and the trend analysis.

This type of analysis is useful, because it allows the user to quickly look at the data from several perspectives to see trends or anomalies that they might miss while looking at data in a more granular form.
