OVERVIEW OF SYSTEM





EXISTING SYSTEM BIRT is Eclipse-based open source reporting system for web applications, especially those based on Java and Java EE. BIRT has two main components: a report designer based on Eclipse, and a runtime component that you can add to your app server. BIRT also offers a charting engine that lets you add charts to your own application.

With BIRT, you can add a rich variety of reports to your application List Charts Crosstabs Letters and Documents Compound Reports Dashboards Parametric report





THEN WHY NOT BIRT????Reasons

All the reports are done by BIRT. But BIRT only supports reporting and analysis with limited no. of options.

Even though BIRT provides so many functionalities but it does not fulfils all the requirements of BI.

Moreover different organizations have different reporting tools and for every new tool our framework need to have that reporting tool functionality integrated in our system and that is the biggest drawback.




SCHOOL OF COMPUTER STUDIES (MCA Programme)WHAT SHOULD BE THE

SOLUTION???SpagoBI

SpagoBI is an Open Source Business Intelligence suite, belonging to the free/open source “SpagoWorld” initiative, founded and supported by Engineering Group. It offers a large range of analytical functions, a highly functional semantic layer often absent in other open source platforms and projects, and a respectable set of advanced data visualization features including geospatial analytics.

SpagoBI is released under the Mozilla Public License, allowing its commercial use. SpagoBI is hosted on OW2(ObjectWeb Consortium and Orientware) Forge managed by OW2 Consortium, an independent open-source software community.
