RE: Is ERP dead?

["Bale, Dan" <DBale@xxxxxxxx>]

I may be showing my ignorance here (nothing new), but...

ERP:  Another marketing buzzword for a product that's been around for years
before "ERP" was ever mentioned.  JDEdwards, JBA, others, aren't these all
so-called ERP packages?  These packages never featured any of the facets of
enterprise resource planning before the term ERP was coined?

Same with "data warehousing".  More marketing mish-mash.
