Finally . . . Reporting for Eclipse!

Thursday, July 14th, 2011

We’ve been thinking and talking about this since 2006, fundamentally driven by the belief that the Eclipse community deserves best-in-class reporting and unfettered access to a complete BI suite that doesn’t necessarily require a commercial license.  To do this right, we always knew that our flagship report design tool (iReport) would need to be re-built [...]

A BI Platform to Tame Big Data

Wednesday, January 26th, 2011

Big data is a popular topic these days.  Though often misunderstood and commonly misrepresented, few deny that the volume and variety of data types now available to an enterprise is skyrocketing.  In a separate article on the TDWI web site, I’ve tried to describe the likely sources of value to be derived from this deluge [...]

Jaspersoft 4: The New Foundation

Tuesday, January 11th, 2011

Today Jaspersoft makes available the fourth major generation of its business intelligence platform and I couldn’t be more proud.

Jaspersoft 3.7: Visualize This

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

[This post returns us to my Jaspersoft 3.7 Enterprise Edition features series, after two short posts on important, timely Community matters. To catch you up, my earlier posts on this topic provided an overview of Jaspersoft 3.7 and a dive into its new integrated, in-memory analysis features.]

Many of the most important industry prognosticators [...]

We have been working toward in-memory analysis capabilities, within JasperServer, for a couple of years. With our previous major release, Jaspersoft 3.5, we made an important declaration: in-memory analysis techniques are going to be a very important part of our future product direction. Being an open source BI company means a commitment to innovative [...]

Yesterday we shared our news about Jaspersoft 3.7 and the new Enterprise Edition. It was a big day.
It’s worth going into a little more detail today about what the difference is between the product suite news and the new Enterprise package. I’ll briefly provide an overview of the features of each and in the following [...]
